Hey folks, a few times recently I've exported my video and found that the final product has this green distorted, corrupt look. I realized that that error was occuring whenever I had a "Dip to Black" effect/transition, so I deleted those, re-exported my video and now avoid that setting. Problem patched.
Now I'm seeing this similar green distorted look, but it's not caused by an effect. And I can't tell the the video is messed up until I try to upload it to Instagram stories or IGTV. I'm exporting my video with the following settings:
H.264
1080 x 1920 (vertical for IG)
Render at Maximum depth checked
Frame rate 29.97 (Matched to Source)
NTSC
VBR, 2 pass encoding
Target bitrate 8 mbps
Maximum bitrate mbps
Use Maximum Render Quality checked
As far as I can tell, these settings align with all of the recommended export settings I can find for Instagram. So I exported my video to my desktop and it looks great, no errors. I transfer the video to my phone via Google Drive and it looks great, no errors. Then, I try to upload the video to IGTV or IG stories and here's what the preview looks like, for the entire 40 second video:
I even continued the upload process and posted the video to my IGTV channel to see if was just a preview issue; no such luck. The green distorted/corrupt moving thing continued. Can someone please help!?

Try the export without Max bitdepth.

Thanks Ann, unfortunately unchecking Max bit depth did not solve this issue.
