If your videos appear green and purple when you add them to Movavi Clips or after saving them, this usually indicates a compatibility issue between the app and the video codec on your device.

Why this happens

This issue is most common on Samsung devices but can occasionally occur on other Android phones like Google Pixel. It happens because some video files use encoding that is not fully compatible with certain devices.

The video files themselves are fine. The issue is related to how your system displays them in the app.

How to fix it

Sending videos through certain messengers automatically converts them to a compatible format:

1. Send the video to yourself (or a friend!) via a messenger.
2. Download the video back to your phone from the messenger.
3. Try adding the downloaded video to your Movavi Clips project.

This method works because these messengers automatically change the video codec during transfer.

The issue can be resolved by converting the video to a different format. Converting changes the video codec to one that works properly with Movavi Clips.

Option 2: Use a video converter

You can convert the video using a third-party converter:

1. Go to Movavi Video Converter (free online tool).
2. Upload your video and convert it to a standard format like MP4.
3. Download the converted video to your phone.
4. Add it to your Movavi Clips project.

You can also use other video converter apps or services you prefer.
