Insta360-clips edited with GoPro reframe fx-plugin turns black

Report · Oct 11, 2023

I am having some difficulties using the GoPro reframe in Premiere Pro, editing Insta360/insv-files.

For about a year, the clips edited with GoPro reframe turns black either while editing, or after rendering/exporting. Parts of the clips may remain viewable.

The problem only occur with the 360-files. The issue has followed through all the Premiere versions since autumn 2022, using Windows 11.

I will attach two images showing the issue in the Premiere Pro. I intend to do a split screen-timelapse in this case, as shown. The left clip is not 360 and is just fine. The right clip is 360 and keeps disappearing as explained. The left frame is from a Sony Action Cam and works allright, with no use of the reframe-plugin.

In Premiere Pro, the 360-files are okay to begin with while editing, and then just occurs black after some time. I've tried multiple projects using different clips, but the issue tend to be the same anyways.

I have tried searching for solutions, but nothing seems to work. Any ideas? At the moment I'm trying to download an older version of Premiere (2019), after a tip of from Insta360's support team.

I'm having this exact problem, but can't seem to find a solution anywhere. Did you ever manage to get it to work?

Sadly, no. I've tried "everything", but the issue seems to re-appear every time

+1 I'm also having this frustrating issue, I can't work it out at all...
The best I've come up with so far is to set the FX plugin to a lower resolution and then increase the scale of the video to make it fit.
This is obviously less than ideal as the end quality suffers...

I just got the insta 360 and I've got to say this is super annoying, this isn't a permanent fix but I close out of premiere and open again anytime it turns black, exporting is a pain bc it'll turn black while exporting
