Go to the program settings(it will be within Sacred). Make sure "Play Movies" is checked. You may need to uncheck 32-bit color as well as check video compatability mode.

I'm tempted to say that you're running into a codec issue that prevents the movies from playing.

Just in case it is another configuration issue I've pasted my settings.cfg file below:

That's Windows User Account Control getting in the way, it doesn't like letting you write files into the Program Files directory. Easiest way to get around that issue is to not install games in Program Files at all, but rather install them in C:\Games or something like that. That might also solve your other issue, I have seen older games do some pretty funny things thanks to UAC.
