Did the original video have cuts in it? Pixel motion doesn't deal very well with scene changes.

it happens mostly in transitions... but sometimes just by itself. I guess it happens when the frame rate of the video is not fully compatible with the composition frame rate

<p>As shown in the picture, the image got corrupted: flipped vertically, and damaged... 
Sometimes I get just a black picture, sometimes other image distortions.</p>
