Clips Turning Pink.

Titan365 wrote on 10/6/2018, 12:51 AM

For some odd reason every time I insert a transition between two clips the clip later in the video of the two goes Pinkish. I am adding the transition by dragging it and dropping it at the cut between the two clips. I end up fixing it by turning off quantize to frames moving the audio until it is white again and then deleting the bit I moved it and somehow that fixes it. I know I have a way to fix it, but I was honestly trying to find out why its happening and a proper way to stop it from doing that.

Why might it be doing this?  How can I fix this problem?

Pink suggest Audio and Video had become Ungrouped.

Yes, when you disable event grouping, the files turn pink to let you know that your audio is no longer in sync with its associated video clip. In order to restore sync, right click on either audio or video portion of the clip, then click synchronize from that menu, then "by moving". it will move the clip on the timeline until it has restore sync.

Are you saying when I insert the transition its disabling event grouping? I mean I've checked my event grouping and its enabled. The clips are only turning pink when I add the transitions and only when I add them. I've also tried the sync and for some odd reason sync by moving doesn't show like an active option for me when I go to select a sync option.

I notice you say you are adding a transition by adding it to the cut between clips... you should make your clips overlaps by the amount of you want the transition to occur, which (if auto crossfade is on) creates a fade between clips. From there, drag the transition you want onto the overlap, and the fade is replaced with the transition. Is that how you've been doing it?

I've just been dragging the transition I want two the split between 2 clips and it adds the transition for me.
