Green line at bottom of video

I authored a DVD for a widescreen project edited using Final Cut Express. I have done this many time.
But this time the bottom of the video has a green line going all the way across.
Does anybody know what causes this issue and how to correct it?

Sounds like a pixel dimension issue. Read this:

  • Iphone 5 LCD screen green lines and bottom quarter all black?

    Hi all,
    Over the past few days I have noticed green lines running thorugh my iphone 5 screen , it got really bad last night so I turned the phone off for a bit and put it on the charger came back after an hour and now it's got much worse. The green lines remained; however the bottom right corner has now gone completely black (sometimes it's green)
    Bottom half of the screen now not longer works meaning that I can't swipe to unlock. Does anyone know what could have caused this? Can this be fixed and how should I got about fixing this? How much will this cost me?
    I've only had the phone about 8/9 months so pretty disapointed.
    Any advice would be really appreciated.
    Thanks so much,
    Laura.

    for an out of warranty iphone 5 at the apple store could be at least $200 and some change..

  • IPhone 5 App Store keyboard glitch -- persistent green lines at bottom of screen

    I just brought home my new black 32GB iPhone 5 from the Verizon store.  After using it for an hour or so, and switching over to WiFi, I entered my Apple ID password in the App Store to (re)download an app.  My password requires me to switch to the ".?123" keyboard.  The bottom ~1/5 of my screen became fuzzy, as though the keyboard overlay was sticking around longer than it should have.  After a short time, glitch resolved to a state that's been "permanent" - vertical green lines.  These green lines fade in slowly after I wake the screen from sleep.  They've persisted through multiple power off > on cycles, a hard reset, and even through the upgrade to iOS 6.02.  Interestingly, screen captures do not seem to grab these green lines.
    Any ideas on how I can fix this, or am I going to have to get the phone replaced?

    I think this is normaly. I've had some issues (gone through 6 replacements - not trivial issues, dead home button, dead camera, dead wifi that kind of thing). I noticed this on the 3rd replacement and everyone since. People are claiming that they have received "flawless screens" (whatever that means). I think the Sharp pannels are the ones that don't show these interlacing lines and AU Optronic pannels do. I have experience with AU Optronic pannels and everyone that I have ever owned (Motorola Xoom, PC Monitors, etc...) have done this. It is too bad that Apple settled for this manufacturer, but it is a gamble whether you will get one that doesn't do it. It is normal and within specs as most the iPhones at this point with have AU pannels due to Sharp's shortage.
    The geniuses will likely not replace an iPhone for this reason. If you have AppleCare+ and have an incident in the future, perhaps you'll get lucky and get a sharp pannel put on to replace the AU pannel. But, there is no way to know which phones have which pannels.
    Interestingly, I checked at the Apple store and 50% of the display models did it, and the genius that I spoke to's iphone 5 did it. You can find wall paper that is alternating black and white lines one pixel in width and it will cause the screen to flicker. Like you, I REALLY wish that apple DID NOT choose AU Optronics and if I had known I would have waited to purchase, but now I have it and cannot return it. I may sell it and move back to my previous phone. Given that the #1 selling feature is the retina display, it is disappointing to see a low quality pannel used. I really like the iPhone, but this is pretty much a deal breaker - and not knowing if you will get one that does it, or doesn't makes it very hard to "trust" a future production. I would rather have waited for the Sharp pannels and delayed getting an iPhone due to supply issues, than Apple finding an alternative, lower quality, source to produce them.

  • Line at bottom of video download

    A few weeks ago I downloaded an episode of CBS's "Jericho." It was my second time downloading a video from Itunes store. It was the first time I've downloaded an hour-long show.
    I noticed that for maybe 50 percent of the time, there's a line across the lower 1/4 of the screen. Sometimes the video drags, but the audio is fine. It's almost as if closed captioning is supposed to be in that area.
    Any ideas? I download at 1.5 meg using DSL.
    Note: The first video download I did a while back was a 30-minute show and it came out fine.
    Thank you and Happy Holidays!

  • How do I avoid or get rid of thin green line bordering my video in Compressor?

    Hello!
    This is my work flow:
    Edited an 18 minute 1920 x 1080 ProRes video on FCP 7, exported a master video file ProRes 422 self-contained QT movie, sent to Compressor (tried Best DVD 90-minutes and ProRes codec settings) to prepare files for a SD DVD in DVD Studio Pro.
    My issue:  I am getting a THIN GREEN LINE bordering my entire video on the Compressor file.
    My master video file is perfect, no green line, however once it's gone through Compressor (tried both Best DVD 90 minutes and ProRes codec settings) the video has a thin green line that I can see in the DVD Studio Pro preview and simulation.  The burned DVD also has it.
    I would like to author the work in DVD Studio Pro as it is a looping video work for exhibition so I have the video file 6 times on the DVD rather than have it re-start at first track every time.
    Seems like it has to do with downscaling the 1920 x 1080 video to SD for DVD. 
    Searched the web and there doesn't seem to be a clear explanation for it besides this discussion about 16s but doesn't clarify in regards to the problem downscaling to SD DVD.
    Thanks so much to anyone with the magic answers!

    >prepare files for a SD DVD in DVD Studio Pro.
    My issue:  I am getting a THIN GREEN LINE bordering my entire video on the Compressor file.
    My master video file is perfect, no green line, however once it's gone through Compressor (tried both Best DVD 90 minutes and ProRes codec settings) the video has a thin green line that I can see in the DVD Studio Pro preview and simulation.  The burned DVD also has it.
    PAL - 1080 / 576 = 1,875
    NTSC - 1080 / 480 = 2,25
    DVDs are standard definition, so your original file has to be compressed to those pixel dimensions. As you can see above the number of HD horizontal lines don't divide by an even number into SD horizontal lines, so you get partial lines left over that the TV system doesn't really know how to interpret - that's the green bit.

  • When capturing video; how do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    When capturing video; How do I get rid of the green lines at the bottom of the frame?

    s.haider
    You have Canon ZR950 mini DV Camcorder, why not make a firewire connection and do DV data capture into the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Capture Window?
    Do you have any reference for what you are attempting to do or is this a creation of your own? Could you confirm what you describe as "just capturing video".
    a. From your information, you are doing Get Media/Webcam or WDM Device with the Capture Window showing the Capturing Device as "Dazzle DVD 100 Video Device". What type of connection are you making between the Canon ZR950 and the Dazzle DVD 100 and the computer?
    b. What exactly do you expect to be putting on the Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 Timeline from this capture...DV AVI or something else?
    Coming from the perspective of Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 known issues, I would ask you to consider:
    a. Remove the check mark next to AutoAnalyzer in the Capture window. Even if you were doing this Capture the "usual way", that is highly recommended.
    b. Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General, and compare your results with and without a check mark next to enable GPU playback. As a cross reference, please go to Edit Header/Effects/Video Effects and detemine if there is a category of Effects named GPU Effects. Do the same thing for Edit Header/Transitions/Video Transitions and determine if there is a category of Transitions named GPU Transitions.
    And, the general drill for all users of Premiere Elements 8.0
    a. Are you working with the automatic Background Rendering and AutoAnalzyer Features turned Off?
    See Premiere Elements workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/General for background rendering option and Elements Organizer workspace Edit Menu/Preferences/AutoAnalzyer Options for AutoAnalzyer options.
    b. Are you working from the 8.0.1 Update version of the program?
    Please consider.
    We will be watching for the outcome.
    Thank you.

  • Thin green line at the bottom of my QT exports from FCP

    Hello,
    I have exported a series of QT vids from FCP. Each QT video file exhibits a thin (2 px)green line at the bottom of the player window. I can't seem to narrow down what is making this line appear. Can you please offer some suggestions? Remedies?
    Thanks so much in advance.
    Utilizing:
    Quicktime Conversion
    optimized for broadband Large
    H.264 codec for HD footage
    Custom 660x377 frame size (varied to see if that would fix the issue, did not)

    So you only see it in QT Fullscreen mode?
    The reason I'm pressing this is that I've seen green lines LIKE this with issues resulting from what seems like a very hot video card.
    Usually they 1) aren't that crisp and 2) don't always show up each time you view it.
    And this is AFTER compression, yes? For sure this isn't on the original material? Make sure you set your canvas in FCP to 100% size to see all of the lines.

  • Green lines on the edge of my video

    Hello,
    I have a problem with premiere pro cs6 every time I export my video I get weird green lines on the left and bottom sides of my video. Does anyone know what might be the problem? I'm working with different aspect ratios and frame rates in my timeline but I heard thats ok. This has been a pain since every thing is ok only the green lines on the edge of my video ruin my viewing experience. Thanks for anyone that can shine the light on this little problem I'm having. 

    I'm having the same problem.
    I have been editing a single interview into four separate videos. Of those videos, only one doesn't have the green line at the bottom of the screen. I'm exporting it as:
    Format: H.264, HD 1080i 29.97 preset
    Video (changes): 480x270, target bitrate 2, max bitrate 3
    Audio (changes): bitrate 160
    Sequence was preset for HD 1080i 29.97, but I changed the frame size to 640x360. I've done this all before and never had any problems and I don't know what to do. I've tried re-editing the footage, but it still ends up with the same result. Any ideas?

  • Green line on movies bottom when converted with H264/MPEG4 codecs-HELP PL!

    Hi all,
    Every time I convert movies from any Quicktime-readable format to .mov format (including .mov to .mov), the resulting movie has a (horrendous) *green line* on the bottom.
    This happen only when I use Quicktime Pro. No other application give me this bad result.
    As only one of many examples you can see in this screenshot a movie (right) made using iShowU with "Apple none" codec, which means that is totally uncompressed.
    To reduce the size I have used QT with H264 codec. The result is (always) that green line (left).
    No matter if I change the movie size or crop it. After all when I export it to save, the green line will be there again.
    Could somebody please help me with this issue?

    *Thank you very much.*

    Thank you David.
    Did work!
    I also read the post you suggested.
    My original video was 426x175 and I changed it in the export properties to 426x 174 . One (1) pixel smaller, and voila!
    Doing this and reading that post doesn't match with Apple's straight forward style.
    Imagine if you have a stubborn movie because of its dimensions?
    I felt like doing medieval engineering.
    Thanks a lot again, David.

  • FCP/Compressor keep exporting horizontal green lines near the top and bottom mattes. What do I do?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to export a:
    1920x1080
    29.97
    Interlaced
    ProRes 422 HQ
    to:
    DVD Best Quality (90 minutes) in Compressor
    Quality all the way high
    Mpeg-2
    in Final Cut Pro and/or Compressor (both so far export with the green lines) and so far it has been to no avail. They show up right on the edge near the mattes. Most forums talk about a vertical green line but I am having problems with horizontal lines near the top and bottom.
    Any ideas? Thanks.

    If you are sending your file via share to Compressor I would try this instead:
    Export a QT reference(not self-contained or using QT conversion) file of your sequence to your desktop.
    Then:
    Turn on frame controls in the MPG-2 setting and set all to best. Changing all settings to best will increase your render time greatly. You may want to do a :30 or 1min test.
    In my experience Compressor can be inconsistent with HD to SD DVD MPG-2 conversion. Sometimes it works wonderfully and others times it does not.
    I have had success with having FC do the SD conversion first.
    Create a new 16x9 SD sequence
    Add HD seq to SD and render
    Export SD and then compress for DVD.

  • I am getting a weird green line at the bottom of my screen...

    I am trying to burn a DVD in iDVD.
    I keep getting a green line at the bottom of the screen. I tried "squaring" the pixels before outputting the project, but I didn't render the project this way in FCP before trying that.
    Could that be the problem?
    I also tried buring at 1x.
    Any help would help!
    Thank you,

    Well to answer the questions. This artifact is in fact a physical one because you can see it when you boot the Mac and sign in with a different profile. I decided to test my luck at the local Apple Store just to see what they said. They looked at the display for about 3 minutes and then said that it would be nearly 700 bucks for parts and labor to basically put a new display on my laptop. He said that since its a TFT screen chances are on of the layers within the screen are messed up hence I see this black line. I decided Im going to look elsewhere and see if I can't find a solution here. If worse comes to worse, then I'll live with it till the Pro Book is out and get that with Apple care.

  • I opened my brand new MacBook Pro the other day and noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is it from and how do I get rid of it????

    I am having a problem with my brand new MacBook Pro. After opening my laptop the other day I noticed a straight green line from top to bottom near the center of the screen. What is this from and how do I get rid of it? It is most annoying. Please Help!

    "What is this from and how do I get rid of it?"
    Such symptoms bode serious hardware issues and you shouldn't think about fixing it yourself when you are still in waranty. Get to an Apple Store, like the other poster suggests.

  • 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."

  • Attempt to play video in timeline causes red and green lines in Canvas

    Hi!
    When I hit the spacebar in FCP's timeline to play, sometimes I get red and green lines in the Canvas (looks like some wierd color digital interference). If I then hit the spacebar again, the audio will play, but with the same red & green lines. If I then hit it a third time, my video will play fine.
    What the heck? Any ideas? This only happens every once in a while.
    Thanks for the input!
    My specs:
    G5 Dual 1.8 GHz processor
    Version 10.3.9 OS
    4GB Memory
    QT version 7.0.2
    not connected to the internet

    To be sure you'll need to include some more details, what version of FCP, and your current sequence settings, but I think I could make an honest assessment, right now. Make a note of your sequence settings, then trash your preferences, but make sure that you close final cut, also once preferences are trashed you'll lose sequence settings, and window configurations if you haven't saved them. So be sure to back them up, before trashing preferences.
    You can find preference by following these commands:
    1.type shift command h - this opens up your home directory
    2.open the Library folder //----SPECIAL NOTE Be very careful in this folder do not move or delete any folders in here.----\\
    3.open the Preference folder //----SPECIAL NOTE Be very careful in this folder do not move or delete any folders in here.----\\
    Now find and delete these 4 files:
    1.com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist
    Navigate to the Final Cut Pro User Data inside the Preference folder and delete the three remaining Final Cut Prefs Files They are as follows:
    2.Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs //*This may be 3, or 6 depending on your FCP version.
    3.Final Cut Pro Obj Cache
    4.Final Cut Pro Prof Cache
    Remember do not trash any folders period, nor move anything, delete on those 4 files, and remember once you delete them make sure you trash them from the drive, go to trash empty trash. You'll have to reconfigure any unsaved layout workspaces and system sequence settings.
    This Clean system should be done once a year, but only if you notice FCP having problems.
    Hope it helps.
