I am having this same issue, anyone else have any other solutions, tried reinstalling VLC, and the codec pack, Windows 10 bigbox.Troubleshooting VLC to Chromecast Streaming Anyhow, I feel like I'm close to a solution and thought I would post here, just in case the above info helps toward a solution. For some reason though I can't get the changes to the config file to be recognized in Big Box. I believe the line in this config that needs to be changed is 'avcodec-hw=' and it needs to be changed to 'avcodec-hw=dxva2'.

It appears that Big Box uses it's own VLC configuration file which is located in the main Launchbox folder under the 'VLC' folder. However, the problem goes away if I go to the Tools>Preferences>Input/Codecs section in VLC and set 'Hardware-accelerated decoding' to 'DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA) 2.0.' Unfortunately, even though the videos now play fine in VLC, they still have the pixelation problem in Big Box. I decided to open the suspect videos directly in VLC and get the same pixelation during the first few seconds. I have yet to find a solution but I think I've made some progress toward one. In the Interface tab, click the Reset Preferences button at the bottom. I just purchased Big Box and I too am experiencing the green/grey pixelation during the first few seconds of a few of my game video snaps. Click the Tools menu at the top and select Preferences from the list.
