Note that the right-click is into the PROJECT panel and not the timeline or Text panel.

  1. Click on a sequence
  2. Go to File -- New -- Transparent Video
  3. It will show up in the Project window

Try a new project.

  1. Right-click in project window
  2. New Item
  3. Transparent Video

 

A video clip will be put into the project. You can drop it into the timeline window. When you play the timeline over that it's much like an Adjustment Layer, there's nothing to see.

Delete the Media Cache and Media Cache files:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the preferences:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:
Reset a workspace
Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.
1. Do one of the following:
• Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.
from here:

If that doesn't work, try Preferences > Audio Hardware and set Input to None.

If that doesn’t work, try updating or rolling back your graphics driver directly from the video card manufacturer’s site. If NVIDIA, do a clean installation of the latest Studio Driver (NOT the Game Driver)

If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

Hey Kacper,

Sorry for the issue. Could you Right-click on the Project Panel > New Item > Transparent Video and let us know if that works for you? I have attached a screenshot for your reference. We're here to help.

 

 

Thanks,

Ishan

Same here, nothing happens. I tried the above and because I already have captions created, the drop down menu above doesn't show up either
