In taking your advice, I discovered a "rookie" mistake. When I imported the avi file from my desktop drive, I was making an assumption that it was being copied to the drive on my new laptop... Oops! The flickering was due to the project on the laptop attempting to access the file across network traffic. When I copied the avi file to my laptop, then created a new project by importing it from my laptop--problem solved. Thank you, Jim, for the suggestion about multiple drives. I'm incorporating it immediately.
