I've had this same problem with the 2 CD windows version - it was to do with the files that store the movies that show on the tv in that room not being on my version of the CD's. Assuming its the same thing you just need to download the missing movies for mac/amiga from the scummvm downloads page.

I'm not an expert on the Feeble Files, but I think the downloads are just additional files. If you want to run the windows version of Feeble Files under ScummVM you will have to compress the video files yourself, for legal reasons they are not available for download.

You do have to recompress all the movies but the movies that show on the tv here were not on my CD's in the first place which is where the problem was.

I didn't use the videos available for download here myself but would have if I'd known they were there at the time - I just renamed some other movie files to fill in the gaps and get me past this spot in the game.

A translation:
Hello everyone. The "Feeble Files" won't seem to work on my PC. I installed it, downloaded the cutscenes from the ScummVM website. I tried to play the game, it seemed to be working until I got to the prison, after the cutscene finishes and you're in the Entertainment Room, I get an error report forcing me to shut down the game. Does anyone have a solution? I really like this game, and I really want to play it again.
