I created my own boot animation and I am having problems with it. As you can see in the video below, it flashes every time it starts a new folder (part0 and part1) and continuously flashes when it repeats part1. It is not only this boot animation though as I have tried others and they are doing the same thing. If someone could help me with this, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

EDIT: I have reset to factory settings and tried again to no avail. I don't know what the problem is...

Hidden files in your zip, such as Thumbs.db or .AppleDouble.

Can you please explain more? I don't know what that means.

Open the ZIP file with a program like WinRar, WinZIP, or 7-Zip, and look inside the folders where the images are. You might see a hidden file in each folder.

Or in Windows explorer (what you see when you open "My Documents" or "My Computer" in Windows), you can go to the menu Tools: Folder Options: View and click the radio button for "Show hidden files and folders."

If there's a file called "Thumbs.db" in any of the folders, delete it.

If you're on a Mac, I don't know specifically what you need to do, but you'd have hidden files called ".AppleDouble" and ":DS_Store".
