Started a new project and the imported AVI logos were terrible. Clicked on the Preview button and everything cleared up but then I could not see an applied FX in the monitor or preview window unless I clicked it again then it screwed up all of the imported AVI's and made all of the clips blue colors black. If I render an applied FX that I can't see in the monitor the render works and sees the applied FX. The preview window is on the second monitor. Sum total is this:
When clip is fine I cannot apply FX.
After hitting preview button all blue colors are black on the clip and then I can apply FX .
