Version 25.3 broke the Turbulent Displace effect

Thanks, Ian. I responded via DM. If we sort this out, I'll post an update for others who may come here looking for similar information.

Hi @BrandonSoMD 
You can send us any project files or video recorded clips of what you are seeing through any file share service you prefer.  Check your messages and you should have one from me for the purpose of sharing the files.

By the way, I'm willing to assist with specific testing if someone from Adobe is actually involved. I value the software and would like to know I've contributed to its ongoing quality. If there's a way to do it privately, I can provide the project file and I can share a clip showing the "as desired" and "as broken" effect.

I have zero 3rd party plug-ins. I'm only using the stock, installed-by-Adobe software and effects. So this is a problem with the Adobe effect. 

I have not tried refreshing the preferences. I can't try it on 25.3 at the moment, since I reverted to 25.2.3. So I'll wait to try it again on a future update. I'm not sure what that would do in any case, since there are no preferences specific to that effect; is there some magic stored in the prefs for effects that I need to know about?

I tried applying the effect to a new clip in the same sequence. I started from scratch trying to rebuild my effect, which (as you can see from the image) had a fairly specific keyframe setup; even without my keyframe details, it still caused the clip to badly misposition, so I didn't see any point in continuing configuring the effect.

Hi @BrandonSoMD 

Are you using a 3rd party plug in for the Turbulent Displace? Or are you using just the basic Turbulent Displace from the effects panel? Have you tried to refresh the user preferences ? Or applying the effect to a new sequence to see if it works on a new sequence?

For some reason, my Turbulent Displace is getting some visual glitches, every time I render the video/use the effect a different glitch appears, before it was no problem to use but now it hinders more than it helps.
