I am making a video from old home movies. I have a new Macbook Pro and had the old 8mm film professionally transferred to mini DV tapes.

I have already edited about about 15 years of tapes which took me hundreds of hours. I am new to Mac, but I have used it extensively for video editing since I got it in May.

Yesterday, I began editing a new 15 year span. I imported the video and all was fine. I finished a few clips and they looked great. An hour later, the strangest thing happened. The imported video looked terribly overexposed. It didn't originally come to me that way. Something happened over that hour

I rebooted, repaired permissions and reset the PRAM. No change.

Any ideas on why my imported video looks terrible after it initially looked fine?
