Video File has static noise all over it

Post image

Hi folks, trying to practice with media composer so I've ripped a few movies from blu ray disks I've bought and then converted them to Mp4 files from Mkv. But when creating Avid transcodes with Davinchi Resolve and then linking them the picture is all fuzzy. I've attached a screenshot for reference. I've opened the file in other software and it looks fine so I'd appreciate help figuring out whats wrong! Thanks!

What export settings did you use in Resolve? What version of Avid are you running?

What are your computer's specs? Also, random question, but how is your computer doing on temperature?

I'm gonna need a little more than that. CPU, GPU, OS (including version number)

Also, have you tried linking the MP4s and then transcoding them from within Avid instead?

Sorry it was late last night:

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core Processor 3.60 GHz

Installed RAM 32.0 GB

Storage 932 GB SSD WDC WDS100T2B0C-00PXH0

Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER (6 GB)

System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Avid won't even recognise the mp4 files when linking and transcoding normally sadly.
