Display TextVideo Hit
Description"Video Hit" is a corruption in a video file that results in a shift in pixels and/or visual artifacts.
ImpactVideo Hits usually represent a render or encoding error. These hits can obscure the main action in a scene. Video hits will also be duplicated in downstream assets and encodes generated from the source.

How to Fix

Check if the video hit is in the source render or if it’s an encoding issue.

If it’s in the render, go back to color/finishing and re-render the affected frames. Then, re-export the final video.

If it’s an encoding issue, just re-export the final video.
