[Jake Williams] “Could this be related to using m2t files instead of transcoding?”

That’s entirely possible. MPEG files use a compression scheme that makes life very difficult for any real-time NLE.

[elizabeth nelson] “I’m not not getting any support from adobe because they say they don’t support it on vista64”

CS4 is fully supported under Vista x64, CS3 is not. It’s documented on the Adobe Web site.

Another possible work around is to put the clip with the frame hold into its own sequence then nest that sequence in the main sequence and apply movement to the nested sequence.

If you want to troubleshoot the original problem, can you reproduce it in a new project?

Do you get a waveform?

This is not easily accomplished in PPro, it is better suited to a SFX app like After Effects. You have to create a matte frame by frame because the area that you want to replace is changing as the door opens.
