I know there has been talk of freezes in Devil Survivor 2 but none of the advice given seems to fix my problem

What happens is after Friday's "Barrier Failure" event after everyone's done talking, you get a death clip. i see the loading introduction to the video, but when the logo fades, it stays black.
I'm using an R4 by the way

I've tried loading an earlier save and replaying the level, same thing happened. I also tried getting a different emulation of the game, but it wouldn't recognize my save files.

If anyone could help that would be great, i'm so close to the end and i'd hate to have to replay it all.
