Mov files gone BLACK… Vegas 9
Hwey pplz,
Im making a 3min wedding video trailer using Mov from AE as well as raw cannon 500D HD footage…
All was going well until i just started working on it and all the mov files are now black in the preview screen.
The thumbnails still cover the clips fine…SOO. I started a new Project just to see if that had the same issue.. and it doesnt! i can add the same clips and they work, however if i re-open my old project once again all mov clips are black agian…
Any ideas wtf is happening and if i can save my original project !! i dont want to start again 🙁

Is the video track muted (‘z’ is the shortcut key)?
Is the Split Screen View option (icon above the Preview window) enabled? -
wow so actually i found that a quicktime update had occured by auto.
Apparently anything later than 7.6.2 makes MOV stop working!!!!
So if pplz are reading this… back date ur QT and it works fine..
Just did it and its all working. weird!

“wow so actually i found that a quicktime update had occured by auto.”
The recommendation to permanently disable the auto update feature in QuickTime is a good one to follow.
“Apparently anything later than 7.6.2 makes MOV stop working!!!!”
If you’re using Pro 9 and it’s the latest version (9.0e), this should not have been a problem as there was a fix for this in 9.0d.
Notable fixes/changes in Version 9.0d
Corrected a problem that could cause black frames in MOV files after installing the QuickTime 7.6.6 update.
