*Resolved. Please see post below to to see the reason this happened to me.*
Hello,
I started working on a new project Tuesday May 2nd and everything worked well. Then the thing with the having to be offline to start the program started when I attempted to work on it Wednesday May 3rd. Once I saw the having to be offline bit, everything went well. Tonight, May 6th, I opened the program while offline because I hadn't seen the patch yet, and after working for about 30 minutes all video assets in the project started turning green (or other colors) like in screen shot A below. In going through the forums I saw the patch and installed. Once the program was reopened, everything still looked as below. I've even opened older projects that never had any issues and they are also showing up this way. This only seems to affect video assets, any pictures or added text seem to be alright (see screen shots B & C below). Any potential help would be amazing, because as of now, the program is a brick and I cannot start any new projects.
Additional note: The original video assets look fine while played in other programs.
Things I've tried (in order):
- Ending the program through task manager and reopening
- Turning off hardware acceleration, then reopening the project
- Deleting the SFK files associated with the video assets while the program is closed, then reopening the program
- Deleting the SFK files associated with the video assets while the program is closed, then reopening the program while holding ctrl + Shift
- Uninstalling, deleting the folder everything Vegas was installed in, deleting all the SFK files associated with the video assets, emptying the recycle bin, then reinstalling the program with the patch
- Starting a brand new project with a file that has never been used in Vegas (The green appears there as well)
- Rendering to see if it was purely an in program glitch (It is not)
