Green screen appearing when trying to play back videos

Hi everyone.
I tried to play some of my videos today and for some of my videos (I downloaded from Itunes a few months ago), a green screen appears and then it goes black and all I can hear is audio. Anyone have this problem and found a way to correct this? My only other option would be to repurchase these videos, which is something I don't want to do. Thanks in advance for your help!

(disabling 3D acceleration is often the technique that works for folks with the green screens.)

Green Screen appears when trying to boot into windows7 64bit using bootcamp

I sometimes get a GREEN SCREEN appearing when i try to boot into windows7 64bit using bootcamp. The computer freezes on this green screen and i have to power down the computer and restart it sometimes twice before it will load windows. Any suggestions on how to correct this problem???
Computer specs: 15" macbook pro, i7 processor, 4GB RAM, 512MB nividia GT330M graphics,
Bootcamp version 3.0.2, Windows7 64bit ultimate installed on a 100GB partition.

Thanks for responding. I'm actually trying to set up the Mac mii as my VMware ESXi 5 server (per Paraguin software guide, see http://paraguin.com/2012/01/10/the-mac-mini-vmware-esxi-5-server-part-2-installa tion/
Nobody following their procedures and posting on their site has had any (reported) video issues, but that was my guess, that somehow video drivers are not being loaded.
BTW, did you mean "hold the option key" at bootup cause my mac keyboard doesn't have an alt key?
Thanks. Still looking for other options.

Help! A "Connect to" popup menu appears when trying to play a video...

Thanks.
A "Connect to" popup menu appears that asks for my username
and password when trying to play video.
I believe this menu began appearing after installing IE 7.0.
Is it therefore a IE 7 issue, or IIS authentication setting, or do
I need to reinstall flash or shockwave? Another question, and very
basic... how do I know if i am using flash or shockwave?
I have googled this and cannot find a similiar case.
Ideas? Thanks.

Well, the answer is going to depend on your network setup. If
you're a home user on a single machine then I'd check your firewall
settings. Or contact your ISP to see if they've implemented any
kind of proxy that requires authentication.
If you're in a network environment then hit your IT guys to
see if they're blocking the FLV file format, or blocking RTMP
streams, or requiring proxy authentication or something like
that.

Green Screen shows when trying to play videos?

Since downloading itunes 8, all of my videos don't work. When you click on them to play, a green screen shows up, and nothing else. And, if I try to play them on Quicktime Player, it doesn't work, either. I tried to enable the Direct3D video acceleration like it said in an article I found, but again, it didn't work.
I'm sure this topic has been brought up before, but if someone would help, that would be great!
Thanks

Apple TV logo appears when trying to play a video

Hi Guys, wondering if you can provide a bit of guidance.
I am encoding video using the Elgato Turbo 264 stick using their software (as well as the quicktime component).
The files encode without a problem, and are in the right format (h.264 codec, right size, right bitrate etc), and they import and play in itunes without a problem. they also sync to the apple tv without a problem.
when i try to select a file to play on the atv, it attempts to load, then the apple logo appears on the screen for 2 or 3 seconds, then it goes straight back to the root menu (movies/tv/music etc).
this problem has never occured before i updated the elgato software to the latest version, and 2 video-ts folders I encoded synced and played without a problem.
anything you know that could solve this issue would be great - i don't want to have to revert back to the old elgato software!

I have the same problem and it appears to be random.
I encoded a stream of 8, 45" videos from identical source material using identical settings. 6 of the 8 worked fine, the other 2 exhibit exactly the same behavior (the mysterious apple log appearance). One thing I have noted is that when I switch sources and attempt to play from iTunes, the same thing happens EVEN THOUGH iTunes displays the stills from the first frames in the menu. The other interesting thing is than when the ATV dumps me unceremoniously out to the menu from my iTunes source, it has switched the source back to ATV from iTunes. This happens 100% of the time.
All the files in question play fine in iTunes - but that is not particularly helpful.

On my Ipad I seem to be having a problem when trying to play YouTube videos embedded on Facebook.
When I click the links, I get a message saying: "Flash Player upgrade required."
and under it, it says, "You need to download and install the lastes version of Adobe Flash Player to view this content"
and also a green button saying "Get Flash Player"
I get this if using chrome or safari .
I can go direct to YouTube it just works.

The Facebook link to the video is accessing an Adobe Flash video. Unfortunately, no iOS devices can play flash.

Unable to load media error when trying to play a video in Sharepoint 2013

My team consistently gets an error when trying to play a video in SharePoint 2013. I can upload it, pick a thumbnail and save it. When anyone else goes to the intranet site and tries to play the video, they get a media failed to load error.
I have tried mp4 and wmv formats. I at first thought it had to do with the codec used in Camtasia to create the video, so I encoded it in Microsoft Encoder to a wmv and it still fails. All of the videos I upload fail for other users. If someone else uploads
a video, I get the error and cannot play the video. If I look at the library in Explorer, the video file is missing but the subdirectories for additional content and thumbnails are present. For the videos I upload and can play but everyone else
gets the error, I see those subdirectories as well as the video file itself.

Why when trying to play YouTube videos does it tell me I need JavaScript and adobe flash player but phone doesn't support

Get error message when trying to play YouTube video's say phone don't support adobe flash player but sometimes it plays them

This is because the html5 player will load the video by default. I have noticed lately that some channels required flash player. Do you have an example video by chance for further investigation?

When trying o play Youtube videos I only see "Plug-in failure". It looks like a button but does nothing. What should I do?

Wait until Adobe updates the Flash Player.

Red screen appears when Flash animation plays inside Captivate

Has anyone experienced this problem? A Flash animation inserted into Captivate displays a red screen briefly when the animation plays. I've never had this happen before.
Ideas?

Green screen appears when I freeze frame chroma key video footage

I need to create a jpg/still image of the video I am producing. The video was shot with a green screen and edited with the chroma key effect and looks fine - but when I "Make a Freeze Frame" the green screen reappears in the image. Help!?

That should not happen.
Even if your sequence is unrendered or the clip wth the chroma key is selected on the timeline, it will normally export correctly.
Next step...
Deleting FCP Preferences:
Open a Finder window. Set the view mode to columns:
Click the house icon that has your name next to it.
Click the folder "Library" in the next column.
Find and click the folder "Preferences" in the next column.
Find and click the folder "Final Cut Pro User Data" in the next column.
Move the files "Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs", "Final Cut Pro Obj Cache" and "Final Cut Pro Prof Cache" to the Trash and empty it.
When you have a stable set of preference files, download [Preference Manager|http://www.digitalrebellion.com/pref_man.htm] to back them up.

Common 'Green Screen" problem when trying to view videos in iTunes

I love the show "Surface" on NBC so I decided to download the first pilot episode #101 to iTunes for Windows on my computer. When I go to "full screen" mode to watch the program it goes to a "green screen" washout that is common when Quicktime is installed whether the version 1.68 alternative or the Apple Quicktime. How do I solve this common known problem?

Anyone have any ideas or need more info, if so please let me know. This is very frustrating.

ITunes stops working when trying to play purchased video

Hey Everyone,

many thanks.
Fault Module Name: QuickTime.qts
Fault Module Version: 7.66.71.0
Okay. let's first try uninstalling and reinstalling your QuickTime. We'll also take a few other explicit precautions, just in case. Best to print out a copy of these instructions, because at one stage of proceedings you won't be able to use a web browser.
Preliminaries
Download and save a copy of the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file from the Apple Website. (Don't run the install on line and don't start the install just yet. get the installer that doesn't mention iTunes.)
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
*Uninstall phase*
Head into your Uninstall a program control panel and uninstall QuickTime.
Next, we'll remove any leftover program files and folders.
In Computer, open your C drive.
Open the "Program Files (x86)" folder.
Right-click on the "QuickTime" folder (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Go back into your C drive (or whichever drive your operating system is installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "SysWOW64" folder.
Right-click on the "QuickTime" file (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Right-click on the "QuickTimeVR" file (if it still exists) and select "Delete".
Empty your recycle bin.
*Reinstall phase*
Restart the PC. After the PC restarts do not open any applications. Disconnect from your network and/or the internet. Now switch off all your security software (firewall, antivirus, antispyware).
Now start the reinstall by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file you downloaded earlier.
Reenable all security software prior to reconnecting to the internet and/or your network.
Does the QuickTime reinstall seem to go through smoothly? If so, try launching iTunes again and trying to play one of the affected videos. Do you still get the same iTunes error, or are the files playing properly now?

Firefox chrashes when trying to play youtube videos

HII!!!!
I saw on another post on how to solve this problem, "right click before the video, select display and uncheck the box" the problem i have is that i cant even get to play the video before it crashes again, does anyone know another way to fix this problem? this is annoying!!!!!!!!!
I already followed this method with internet explorer, but it wont work when i try to play videos on firefox, it crashes just like i said above!
thanks!

Hi, well try this. Go to this test site and right click on the Adobe Flash logo and do the same thing.

Hope that works,
