I just got this game and installed the community patch and I don't have any intro movies or cut scenes just a black screen. I can hear the sound of them playing just no visuals, at first I thought it was the HD/widescreen patch I had run so I did a fresh install and same thing happens.
Thanks!

That sounds like a video codec problem.

Try installing this codec pack. Combined Community Codec Pack

Are you using the unofficial patch? If so, could you try removing high resolution patch? If not, could you install unofficial patch from the thread called "Arcanum Essential Mods/Patches"?

Might also be a video card issue (Arcanum seems a bit picky about those in certain cases). Try playing around with the settings.
