Hi Slava,
>From memory I think I've seen this issue as well. Once you switch to an 8bit
image using member("x").filename then the palette for that image 'sticks'
for all subsequent filename switches to images greater than 8 bit. Maybe
Director does a puppetPalette when you switch images this way.
My bet is that if you make your gif images 16bit then everything will work.
You could also try using
puppetPalette 0
before switching to the next image.
