Ok-lets see if I give enough info...also I can't recall how to show an image of my timeline and I don't know how to find the codecs for the clip\\
It’s not PE Pro, I’m using PE9 Updated to PE9.01

- What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime". I don’t know how to find this info
- If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)? occasionally “a serious problem has acured and PE will be shut down. We will make an attempt to save your project.” (almost word for word)
- What were you doing when the problem occurred? This happens during preview and/or when I’m actually working on the video. I have taken raw footage and would look great until I rendered it or burned to DVD, then it becomes pixilated (random areas of the video, not the whole video) and stays that way.
- Has this ever worked before? Yes, it just started doing this out of the blue, with no other problems
- What other software are you running? No other video software. I close everything before working on video
- Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed? No-don’t think so
- Tell us about your computer hardware. Be especially certain to tell us about third-party I/O hardware (e.g., AJA, Matrox, Blackmagic, MOTU). I do have Black Armour HDD but have not been using them, I’ve been working straight from the c-drive.
- Are you using Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration? no
- Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both? Both
