If I remember right, the reason why the TFL cutscenes don't play in Smacker player is because they have a Myth header before the actual Smacker data. Basically, there are 64 bytes at the beginning of the file that the Smacker player can't decipher.
To fix it, open up the extracted files in a hex editor. Delete the first 64 bytes of the file; the bad data probably starts with something like "01crowsb_smk" or similar and ends with "myth". The real data starts where it says "SMK2".
Save the file with a .smk extension. If you are on a Mac, you'll probably need to change the file type to "Smk2". Now the Smacker player should play the cutscenes.

PS - Obviously you don't need to do this for Myth 2 cutscenes; they are just plain-jane Smacker files with no Myth header.
