Comments.Text: @user280902 - yeah, but there are multiple things that can cause that kind of an issue.  We can't recognize what the actual problem is from your description.  But visually, we may be able to recognize it, particularly with the details of the actual video file provided.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2014-08-05)
  
  Yesterday, I'd been editing a film for work. I imported the footage from my camera and the clips looked perfectly fine. So I uploaded the clips to Google Drive and then downloaded on my computer and imported these footages to my Linux machine using KDENLive editor. The footage looks all pixelated and it has terrible resolution.
  
  Is there something I can do to fix it? I tried using Handbrake to convert it to another format but even that didn't work.
