Episode not seeing M100 V12 black clips!
Hi All

So if you have say a 2 sec black clip at the start of a programe Episode screws up the encode and you get some noise instead of picture. This happens if I export as by-ref or self-contained.

Anyone have any ideas about this before I go to the Telestream forum?
Thanks
