Capture green strip

I have a MSI Ti4800se VTD8x (ms-8900), and when capturing with WinDVR (I haven't any other programs installed - WINXP Pro is my OS), I get a green strip or line up the top of the video. I tried unplugging the source cable, and that only resulted in the dvr screen going black, with the green strip still there. My Country standard is PAL (Australia). When the NTSC_M standard is selected under Device > Video Input, the green strip disappears (a thinner white/grey line replaces it with white dots), but the image gets stretched, as you would predict. These lines are around 8-2 pixels in height. I remember it hasn't always been there.
P4 2.6gig
Asus p4s8x-x
512mb pc2700 ddr ram
winxp pro sp1

I have found the problem is not any hardware problem, as both Virtualdub and iuVCR capture without any visible glitches (except those of bad codecs at low compression :P). It is purely due to Intervideo WinDVR 2.0... I might try an update.

Green stripe appears on video after compressing

After running a Quicktime file through Compressor, I get a green stripe running horizontally across the center of the image. The stripe covers roughly a third of the screen vertically.
Some background:
The computer is a new 12 core, Mac Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. After experiencing the problem I did a clean install of the OS, installed Final Cut Pro Studio 2, then installed all the updates and still got the green stripe. I have been using the same version of Final Cut on an iMac for two and a half years without this issue. The iMac is also running Snow Leopard 10.6.4.
The Quicktime file is 1920 x 1080, ProRes 422

Myself as well. I briefly talked to Apple phone support, but they didn't acknowledge the disrepency and proceeded to have me re-install Compressor (even though I was using a clean install of both the OS and Final Cut Suite). Of course, there was no change. It does bother me in that this may be an issue that affects other functions I haven't yet uncovered. I expect see this problem escalate as time goes on.
One rather humorous anecdote: The support rep wanted to determine if I had the minimum hardware required to run Final Cut Suite. When I told him I had just purchased a 12 core Mac Pro, he still went through the minimum required hardware list. One would think an Apple rep would know this system would more than cover the minimum requirements without going through a component checklist.

Quality Issues and Green Strip at Right of Frame in Comp. 3.5

I just upgraded to Compressor 3.5 with my upgrade of FCS which includes FCP 7 (I guess this is FCS 3 even though the upgrade box doesn't say so). The quality of Compressor's outputs using the same settings is noticeably inferior to the previous versions of Compressor in the FCS releases that included FCP 5 and FCP 6. I also have this green stripe that appears at the extreme right edge of the frame.
I mostly do h.264 compressions for streaming. In previous versions of Compressor included with FCS 5 and FCS 6, Compressor made incredibly good quality compressions when set to a restriction of 300 kbps for a 500 x 282, 16.9 screen size using the 'best quality' multi-pass encoding setting. In version 3.5 of Compressor, the quality, using the same settings, is absolute crud and I have this green stripe appearing on the extreme right edge of the frame.
My original source content is usually HDV 1080i60. The problem with my Compressor outputs w/ the green stripe is consistent, however, with footage I've been working with in Apple ProRes 422 (HQ)24p from a Red camera.
Has anyone else experienced this green stripe issue and know a solution? I'd also appreciate any suggestions on how to improve the output quality when compressing in h.264.
Also, has anyone gone back to the previous version of Compressor included with FCP 6 (sorry, I don't know what version of Compressor was included w/ FCP 6)? If so, does it play nicely with FCP 7?

I may have just answered my own question with the green stripe artifact issue in Compressor 3.50. Thought I'd share it to see if it helps anyone else.
A true 16:9 frame means the height of the frame is 0.5625% of the length (9 / 16 = .5625). I used to compress material with a frame size of 500 X 282. Although this wasn't a true 16:9 frame, the difference didn't create noticeable distortion and previous versions of Compressor handled it ok. In 3.5 this deviation appears to create strange artifacts, in my experience, on the right edge of the screen in the form of a solid green stripe. When I moved my frame size to 512 x 288, the green stripe artifact went away. 288 / 512 = .5625, which is a true 16:9 frame.
I have no idea if this is just a coincidence or a solution. These are the results of what 30 min. of testing yielded. Perhaps it will be helpful to others in dealing w/ the strange line artifacts on the edges of frames.

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off and had to use the two button trick to turn it back on. Now it shows only green stripes for a few seconds and goes back to sleep.

My iPad suddenly started to show crazy colors. I turned it off. It would not reboot until I used the two-button reboot. Now it shows only green stripes. only for a few seconds and goes back to sleep. HELP!

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

Scanjet G3010 Scans black color with faint green stripe

When scanning photos the black or other dark colors will have a faint green stripe over a portion of the photo. The green stripe may actually cover some of the other colors however it is clearly visible on the portions that are black. I have installed the latest driver for Windows 7 64 bit dated Oct 2012 with no improvement. This has been a issue as long as I have owned this scanner and I have grown weary of trying to reposition the photos to make the green tint less noticeable.

Thank you, FXChrome did the trick.

Horfrible GREEN STRIP down display. Help!!!

I turned on my I book g4 (owned for sixteen months) and found a bright green strip about one-eigth inch from top to bottom of the display. what gives? do I need a new screen now? No longer under warranty
shows up the worst against any colored or dark graphics background. it is a straight, glowing green line
anyone have any advice
many thanks

Sounds like you have a column of dead pixels.
You can test your LCD using Pixel Check: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11661.
If the line remains stuck on green then chances are the pixels are dead.
Some users report that gently massaging dead pixels can sometimes bring them back to life. I'd proceed very carefully, however, considering there's a whole line affected. You don't want to risk further damage.

AUDIO... thin green strip? Or all-emcompasing green blob?

Just getting started on iMovie '09...
On my FIRST test movie, when I drug in an audio clip, it came in as a thing green strip under the movie.
On my NEXT test movie, it came in as a green "background".
I have no idea what the difference is, or how I did it.
ALSO: I don't have the AUDIO BUTTON on the middle toolbar (or the other one next to it). I've seen those buttons in various tut vids... they are supposed to be to the right of the CROP button... how do I turn those on?

Some of the Tutorials are for iMovie 08, which has the audio button.
For iMovie 09, the Audio controls are built into the inspector, which is the little gear icon in each clip.
Click the inspector and go to the Audio tab of the inspector.

Camera green strip

Hello, since I have upgraded my iphone to the firmware 1.1.3, the camera began to store photos with a green stripe in the center (at the time of taking the photo this strip does not appear). To rule out that this was a hardware problem I downgrade to the firmware 1.1.2 and it worked smoothly. Today I'm in the firmware 2.0 with the hope that worked but the problem persists. I've completed restore and reset but nothing happens. You can see a photo here

I too just encountered this exact problem, but it was after the phone took a good tumble. ALthough it was inside the venerable Contour SHowcase enclosure, I'm afraid that the camera board or cable or circuit may have been damaged or come loose. Have you had any accidental drops or impact damage to your phone preceding the issue?

My screen is showing black and green stripes, what is wrong?

HT1237 updated my EFI on macbookpro5,1 still have problems, like green stripes on some black parts. Anybody know what to do? i bought it secondhand...

Hello,
I updated my EFI but still having problems with my screen, a lot of places wich should be black are having green stripes and blue pixels flicker a bit.
Really strange, i bought it second hand and knew the WiFi is broke but i saw this and it was not everywhere every time so i thought it was just a problem of osx or something like that.... but after a new fresh installation the samething is there...
I allready red somethings and most people had luck with SMC reset, or NVRam or PRam reset .... mine not.
Does anybody know about this problem and what it could be??
MacbookPro5,1 15" 2.4GHz 2Gb ram, nVidia 9600M GT and 9400M (doesn't matter wich i choose) i don't know if it is the graphics card because i don't have a cable for my macbook to an external screen.
Hope somebody has a solution....

i already realizing that...
can it be the cable for the screen?

My MacBook Pro has been having difficulties at startup. It sometimes locks and doesn't get past the white screen. It has also locked up several times and gotten a green stripes across the entire screen. What is causing this and how do I fix it?

You don't, take it to Apple for repair.
This might interest you if it's too old to fix.
My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?

Green stripe on screen when using BT Vision box

I get a green stripe and spots on my TV picture (colour changes depending on TV picture background) when using my BT Vision box. The BT Vision menus however are not affected by the stripe and spots effect. When the TV (Sony Bravia) is used standalone (unplugged from BT Vision box) the picture is fine. When using our DVD player (BT Vision box switched off) the TV picture is similarly fine. Have you any idea what is happening? I've had the BT vision box for about 2 years and it's been okay up till now.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Many thanks for this - I had checked them previously, but switched off, unplugged everything and then reconnected - all up and working again. Best Rgds

White screen with green stripes

Hi,
I have an imac 27” (Mid 2011), My screen started to freeze 30 minutes after I turned the computer on. I would be running lightroom 4 or some other program, and suddenly the screen would go black with some stripes (just like old TV did when you turned them on), then it would go to a complete White screen an that was it. If I restarted it would have the problem 30 min after. This happen sevral times during the last days. Yesterday , I started the computer and a White screen with a Apple symbol appeared and after that it jsut went white . Some some vertical Green lines appeared. Then the screen when back total white and nothing happens. Could this be lack of memory space? Any suggestions?

It reads as if you have a hardware problem which we here can't solve. Bring the Mac into an Apple Store or AASP.
