So after getting everything working, and playing Bafford's mission, I got to the end and there was no "success/mission completed" video. However, I continued on and watched the intro video to Cragscleft.
I figured it was either "all the videos" or "none of the videos", not in between. I've installed the codecs about 3 times or so, so I was surprised the success.avi didn't play, but the next mission briefing did.
What's up with that?

Strange...are you sure you didn't accidentally click through it? I've done that before; clicked at just the right time and completely skipped the Mission Completed cutscene. Something you could do is replay the end of the level and make sure to not do anything after completing the last objective. Also, check to make sure success.avi is in the Movies folder under the Thief Gold root directory.

I had quicksaved a bit before then, so I played it again and got the same results. And yes, Success.avi is in the right place as well.
It's kinda odd, but if that's all that is gimped up at this point, I'll live with it. I was just kinda curious why, or if that has happened to anyone else. I was also concerned that I'll miss the cutscenes involving Constantine.

All the other end-level movies have played fine so far. Maybe it was an errant click aborting the success.avi like you suggested. I wouldn't have thought so since I tried it more than once, but who knows. Oh well, doesn't matter now.
All is good in my Thief universe at the moment. :)
