Wrong saved file

Hi, I'm working on a timelapse video. In a first time I created a timeline with only still frames, just to syncronize them with the audio. In other words, I created a storyboard. Later I replaced the still frames with the jpg sequences. It worked fine. But, after several savings (because of the work in progress), the program started to load the saved file in a wrong way. Everytime it changes a clip with an old still frame, wich I deleted many savings before!! Even if delete the still frame and replace it again with che correct file, when I save and reload it the old still frame is always at his place!

What's going wrong!?

Thanks!!

Your project file seems to have been corrupted. What you can do with your project open, launch VMS again to open a new project. From your working project, select all events in the timeline, copy them and switch to the other window and paste them into the new project. Save it with a different name and you should be good to go.

However, you may get lucky and click on the lightning bolt icon in the Project Media tab to remove all unused media from the project. That could resolve your issue.

When working on a project, it's recommended to do a Save As periodically so if something should happen, you can go back to a known good version and continue.
