Ok thank you!

Loading the clip worked but I still have tons of old projects that I need to access like this one: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13B57plX3be84aiRwFuai3jeh74YCvT2m/view?usp=sharing.

How were you able to make the file accessible? 

Ok here's the file. I made it on v16.08 https://drive.google.com/file/d/194NApp07G68C4SxlCetbH9GuIhpak6Yn/view?usp=sharing

On this 16.02 version the desync issue isn't present and the black and white does go away after the video is fully processed so it is the most usable i've been able to get VP to so far so that's good. still would like to have it back working 100% normally.  And I'm still unable to open my project files.

I also tried adding footage to a new project using this version of VP and it still show the black and white on the timeline

I got the error message "this version of the project file is not supported. Try to update Videopad to the latest version.

I checked if the video drivers were up to date using device manager and I ran DirectX and it shows no problems found.

Now the problem has gotten even worse. The black and white visual effects are still there but when i try to put a motion or effect on any point in the timeline the video completely desyncs from the audio. it's like every point on the timeline changes to a different point in the media its using. I don't know if that issues anyone has had before either. I dont understand how this issue can persist if I keep fully deleting the program. I even used revo uninstaller to make sure very last videopad file was gone before reinstalling and i'm using the latest version.

Hey there

I tried changing it to none(CPU Only) and I still got the same issue.

I followed your instructions and uploaded the files to google drive https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/124Xm4KCBeNans_YD_ITRC6gns2jXJjan?usp=sharing

I went ahead and shot a new video since the one I had in the previously shown video project was 2GB. The problems is still present here.

An interesting observation I had was that yesterday to be able to fully delete videopad I booted my computer into safe mode. While in safe mode i noticed the black and white and the weird artifacts weren't present on the timeline so I tried to export in safe mode and the video came out without any issues. However it took about 10x the length it would normally take to export a video.

Let me know if I need to provide anything else.

Hi everyone,

I've been using Videopad for years and this is the first time I've had this issue come up.

Today I was editing a video in VP and parts of the video suddenly started appearing in black and white with weird ditko dot like artifacts with random colors.

I finished the project just thinking it was an issue that would go away but when I exported the videos the coloring errors and artifacts were still there.

So to fix the issue I first tried updating to the latest version of VP but the issue was still apparent.

Then I tried uninstalling vp and when that changed nothing I uninstalled again clicking the option to remove all data and still nothing happened.

Lastly I started a new project and put in some different footage to see if there was an issue with the original mp4 file and the same issue showed up.

The weirdest part is I do reaction content to animated shows and this issue doesn't seems to have an effect on the animated show mp4s i add to the project only the real footage I've recorded.

I've attached the project file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z1uD53y7Tzu8TdOS0ORNj9uoIN1ToKqQ/view?usp=drive_link

the exported video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14nWHotz7YaJM-sSW5c18pvq-KP2wsNLq/view?usp=drive_link

and some screenshots of how it appears on my timeline: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VMYs5v6HdvP2373izqCcwnVuZeeg7Mty/view?usp=drive_link

This is extremely frustrating and puzzling for me and I'd really appreciate some help or insight if anyone has any. 

Thank You!
