Why don't I see an imbedded SWF playing on the Mac (I can hear it), but plays fine in Windows?

i've been tasked updating older project adding more selections menu, work nicely. i'm developing in director 12 on mac running 10.7.5. i've created both mac , windows version of projectors.

 

as background, given swfs have had nothing creation of them. same true director file, that's i'm updating , woes started.

 

the windows projector works fine. on simple timeline, user clicks button, jumping frame , calling upon swf play. frame has swf user has press main menu button (in director environment, not swf) return main menu.

 

in windows environment, works perfectly. swfs play -- can see , hear each 1 when selected.

 

in mac environment, can hear video. seems stage color of swf , nothing else seen. other functionality in mac environment works. don't see swf play.

 

now, here's kicker... on mac can see , hear swfs if play them in saflash player or in flash itself.

 

any thoughts?

thanks.

select swf member in cast - under property inspector - movie tab - flash tab -

make sure image turned on, test dts turned on, test quality set low.
