Green and Purple Horizontal line on top of video ...

For some reason I'm getting a flickering green and purplish line on the top one or two pixels of every video I encode to H.264 through Compressor. I've heard the "even number theory" and its not working. Even heard the "divisible by 16 theory". NOT WORKING. So ... any have a real solution here? Thanks!

here is the theory:
It's not really an aspect ratio problem, it's a dimension problem when encoding to h.264. I just posted this in another thread a few minutes ago.
"Divide the height and width of the video by 16. If you get an uneven number your more than likely will get a green line when encoding to h.264. H.264 encodes in blocks of 16 pixels. For example: 720x405...
720=45
405=25.3125
When I a get a video with a dimension of 720x405, common dimensions for a dvd 16x9 square pixels video. I'll trim off 5 pixels and set the height size to 400.
Also if you encode sizes by 16, you'll get a better encoding."

  • My iMac display occasionally flashes green and purple horizontal lines... is anyone else having this issue, or know of a fix?

    The screen occasionally flashes purple and green horizontal lines across it. Then the buttons on the left side of my menu bar turn fuzzy, and when I click on them they become black rectangles with green and purple lines running thru them. The dock also has a hint of green and purple in it. And some of the shadows around application windows are just black outlines, instead of gradiating shadows. Is this happening to anyone else? Does anyone have a fix? I read about the other supposed graphics issues, but I think they're unrelated, or at least left unfixed by the firmware update.

  • Pink and Purple Horizontal lines on iMac Screen

    I set up twp new users on my iMac and also restored my daughters iPod under one of the users today. After trying to switch from user to user, teh computer started acting slow and was not responding. We tried to shut it down but it got stuck for while so we forced it to shut down by holding the on/off switch in the back. The screen popped up with this image, see attached. HELP! The white square on the right is a reflection from our window.

    Susie ...
    Try Resetting the PRAM
    If that doesn't help, try a Safe Mode boot.
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    If that didn't help, restore OS X. Restart your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys so you can access the built in utilities in  OS X Recovery

  • Iphone 3G camera has green and purple stripes

    I have a 3G iphone that was working perfectly. All of the sudden, these green and purple "noise" lines started showing up just in the camera app. I restored the software and that didn't get rid of it. I also pinched the case to see if maybe something was loose- still no go.
    I know that I'm not the first person to experience this problem but I was wondering if someone had figured out what exactly is causing the problem. Is it the camera itself? Like I said, it was working fine.
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Phil

    it was from the display protector on the screen?
    Most likely that is the reason.  I have a screen protector on and see similar issues when the iPhone is not on.  They're not noticeable when turned on.  Remove it and see the difference.

  • Display leaves green and purple lines

    Guys
    My display leaves green and purple lines when ever I move any windows. I have zapped the PRAM and tested the RAM with memtest. Any ideas as it's driving my crazy

    AHT does test the video RAM, so louie's advice is spot-on. If the test doesn't report any VRAM problems and an external display doesn't show the same symptoms, then the fault is somewhere downstream from the logic board, i.e., in the video cable or the LCD itself. AHT isn't able to test those.

  • Confused about TM's 'grey' & 'purple' horizontal lines in timeline

    I have Lion OS 10.7
    Whenever I connect my LaCie external HD and click on TM, the Star Field timeline would show both Grey and Purple horizonal lines.
    Grey horizontal lines being TM's Snapshots
    Purple horizontal lines being my external HD
    I just downloaded software from the Apple and when I enter the Star Field, there are no grey horizontal lines.  If my LaCie is not connected, a pop up box says that my 'TM backup disk can't be found.'
    But, I have entered the Sar Field in the past without my LaCie connected and there used to show about a week of TM snapshots, all grey horizontal lines in the timeline.
    Has something changed?  Is TM snapshots still taking place when I am away from my external HD?  
    Thanks for your help,
    B.

    You're saying you select Enter Time Machine from the menu bar and nothing happens? If so, proceed as below.
    Please try each of the steps below that you haven't already taken.
    Step 1
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Try again to enter Time Machine. Post any messages that appear in the Console window – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Step 2
    If you're backing up to an external hard drive attached to your Mac, open the backup volume in the Finder. You should see a folder with the name "Backups.backupdb". You should not see a file with a name ending in "sparsebundle". If you do see that, the backup was created over a network and can only be used that way.
    Step 3
    Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the backup drive in the pane on the left (not any of the volume icons below it.) At the bottom of the window, you should see this:
    Partition Map Scheme : GUID Partition Table
    If the partition scheme is anything else, the drive has to be repartitioned (with the loss of all data.)
    Step 4
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the Finder window open for now.
    Relaunch the Finder by selecting  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar, then selecting Finder and pressing return. Your Finder settings will be lost.
    Try again to enter Time Machine. If you still can't, put back the file you moved to the Desktop, replacing the newer one that will have been created in its place.
    Otherwise, close the Finder window you opened and delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Recreate your Finder preferences.
    Step 5
    Boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime. Try again to enter Time Machine.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.

  • Green and purple dots on screen (fixed!)

    So I had green and purple dots all over the screen of my iMac (10.5.6, intel 24"). The dots would disappear briefly when windows were dragged over them. Green dots appeared on black backgrounds and purple dots appeared on lighter backgrounds (e.g. "about this mac" was really bad). I didn't find the solution anywhere and several people reported needing to replace their hardware. With the help of a technician at Apple, we figure out the fix (in my case).
    Here's what didn't work:
    - shutting off the machine and unpowering for 15 seconds
    - resetting the PRAM
    Here's what DID work:
    - go to Utilities
    - go to Disk Utility
    - select Macintosh HD
    - press "verify disk permission" (and wait a long long time)
    - press "repair disk permission" (and wait a long long time)
    - reboot
    This fixed it. Apparently errors on disk impact bits in displaying certain things. Who knew.
    Anyway, I hope this helps someone else.
    Nate

    OK. Thanks.
    I noticed that when I ran the verify/repair permissions again, it found some, repaired it, and the dots went away again. That would indicate a hardware problem.
