Blank video after a split

Hiya,

I can usually find my way around most of the bugs in version 12, but I'm having a hard time tracking this one.

With longer video that I split up on the time line, using some but not all of the containing footage, I get blank/black video with sound in a lot of cases lately and I can't figure out how to avoid this. SOMETIMES if I start at the BEGINNING of the timeline I can reset t hings and the video will again play. But how frustrating is THIS for a video editor.... and editor that won't let you edit ;-/

Anyone have any experience in this regard?

Thanks

Though it's for PD 13, check out whether anything mentioned in this thread helps your situation...

Hi Borgus,

Thanks for the tip. Will try this after my current render hands me back my machine. Will let you know. BUT, I noticed that this is addressed by patch for V13. What do I do as a version 12 owner ? Is this patch available for 12? I will NOT update my version JUST to fix a bug. THAT is THEIR responsibility, not mine. Upgrades are for features, not bugs.

Thanks

Patches do contain fixes. Of course, you would install the latest for PD12, not 13...

Sorry for the delayed response.... and thank you for your reply. I just now installed the latest update and will find out how well it does over the next few weeks ;-0

Thanks Borgus!
