Bad imported MP4 HD video

[kenvro]

I just purchased Corel VideoStudio Pro X4 and I am having a problem. The video camera I use is a GoPro Hero that records in MPEG-4 and I have been using the 16:9, 1080 P, 30 frames per second mode. When I import a video to VideoStudio and try to play the clip, it is obscured by constant blotchy, snowy, large random pixelation for lack of a better word. In any case, you can hardly see the video. If I import a standard definition video taken with the same camera everything seems to be OK. The video displays perfectly on my computer if I just play it.

Hello kenvro,

You may want to check the smartproxy settings as this affect the preview playback within the program, specially if you are workign HD video. This will help preserve system resources and avoid over loading your computer. Also have you tried rendering or creating a file? Does it has the same result?
