I just upgraded to 8.0c and captured from my sony v1e. The resulting m2t files will display in the preview window when i put the clip on the timeline.

But if i try and play same clip from project media tab, it doesnt show on the preview window, but the audio plays. It doesnt show in the trimmer window either. This is very weird, as have been capturing for past year and didnt have this bug.

If anyone can shed some light, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The key here is 8.0c. It's all spelled out in the "readme" file. It's previewing in the TRIMMER instead of the PREVIEW screen.

As you can see, you're not the only person who's been affected by this. This is one of the top asked questions since 8.0c was released.
