DJI Osmo Action footage issue

[FJCONE]

I upgraded from 2018 to 2021 yesterday to allow me to add footage from my newe GoPro Hero 5. I edited a video from the GoPro , everything worked well. However, when I imported footage from my DJI Osmo Action camera, its color shifted, lots of yellow,purple, etc overlayed on the footage in preview.

I went back to 2018, and the footage is fine. I tried turning off hardware acceleration after seeing apost about a similiar issue with Sony camera footage, no change.

Open a clip from that Osmo in the free download MediaInfo. In MediaInfo, set View to Text and then copy the text of that report and paste it to this forum. Once we know the complete specs of that video we'll better be able to advise you.

Hello,

Thank you for the response. Just to check, I tried loading a GoPro Hero 7 file as well, same issue as the DJI.

I suspect the issue is that it's a 60 frames to second 4K video, which the program does not support well.

If you can change your camera's settings so that it records 30 fps, that will resolve your problem. 

Or you can convert the video to a 30 fps MP4 using the free download Handbrake.

Update your graphicscard driver.
