Hi,
I am also having this issue on a clients site.
I've got a group with 3 elements, dropdown(image/video), image, number). (This is a slider that can show images or video from vimeo by id). It's been running for over 6 years without issue, we have not made changes to the code or configuration.
When the client edits a post with the given group the group details do not display.
It looks like the deserialization is failing.
Please help us find a fix, or tell me a previous version of metabox that I can use without the issue.
