[Bug 1509067] Re: Video looks distorted when editing, and it looks distorted after saving; I'm using Openshot on Ubuntu 15.10.

 

Same problem here, Debian Stretch, OpenShot 1.4.3, melt 0.9.8. Also saw
it on different hardware with Debian Jessie (openshot 1.4.3, melt
0.9.6).

I'm not sure the fault is with melt (or maybe not directly). The clips
play fine in melt, i.e.:

$ melt myclip1.mts myclip2.mts myclip3.mts

...all play fine. Playing in melt with a filter works too.

I found a workaround that seems to make Openshot behave:
-right-click on the first video clip in the timeline, click properties, then Effects
-add a Letterbox effect with Border Width set to 0.0, Transparency = No
-CHECK "apply effects to all clips on this track"
-click Apply

The project now play and export fine, at least for me :-) YMMV.
other effects work too, Letterbox seems to have little impact on processing time.

  Video looks distorted when editing, and it looks distorted after

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  The original video from my webcam looks fine, but when I've imported
  it, the video looks like it's been inverted and staticy; when I've
  saved the video to be sure, it came out as messed up as it was.
