Yes, enabling the  "legacy AVC encoder" did indeed work for me. Not sure what other implications that has on my playbacks or GPU renders, but I can give that a try.

I understand that there is an issue here somewhere, but at least I have a workaround for now.

Thanks guys.

I didn't know about that option to show red on Unquatified edges showing up in red. Good tip to know. I've only run into this when I for instance unlock my audio from my video and in so doing, the audio can actually placed between frames and then when you ripple from that audio clip it offsets all of the video and audio between frames.

Have you got 'Quantize to Frames' activated at the top of the Options context menu?

When activated, any frame that doesn't sit bang on a frame line on the timeline will be highlighted in red.

In the above screenshot, the LH edge of the audio event sits midway between two frame lines (arrowed). When this happens with a video event, rendering will render the entire first frame but render that whole frame as black.

Any unquantized video events need to be manually adjusted to a frame line. Unquantized audio events aren't so important in fixing unless one wants to do so.

Thanks for that great tip with the red alert.
