Green Screen on Viewer

I loaded mpeg file to Premier Elements 8 and could see preview in right pane but could not see movie in viewer of left pane filled with green screen. When I clicked the viewer, I could see the shot normally. But it turned to green screen again when I click play button. I encoded the file from mpeg to avi with MPEG Streamclip and tried again but it didn't improve. Please give me any advice, setting up etc...

When you say "it didn't improve" do you mean that the converted AVI showed up as green in your project also?
Look at the timeline when you place the clip on it. Is there a red line above your clip? That indicates that the clip needs to be rendered. Press Enter and the red line will turn green. The resultant video will look much improved.
Whenever you load a non-DV format (including MPEG) into Premiere Elements, the program needs to conform it. Depending on how long this clip is, this can take a couple of minutes or as long as five. But, as its conforming, it will display the symptoms you describe -- It will not play, although you can scrub to specific frames. Usually this conforming is represented by a a green progress bar in the lower right of the program.
Give the MPEG or AVI a few minutes to conform in the program. Chances are it will play just fine in a couple of minutes.

  • STILL getting green screened when viewing video.. Fix?

    Hey all,
    I've had this issue for probably 6+ months. I'm fairly sure a lot of people are familiar with this issue. If I view a flash player that attempts to play video, it shows nothing but a green screen. Regular flash content works fine, only video ends up green screening me (like anything on youtube).
    Yes, disabling hardware acceleration makes it work. I am very familiar with that fix. The video is fully viewable at that point, but when I hit a complex website my system bogs down to a crawl without acceleration otherwise. It makes flipping between acceleration and no acceleration a huge hassle.
    This is a new OS install. I've uninstalled/reinstalled flash player, no difference.
    OS: Win 7 Pro 64bit (all latest updates)
    Flash Player: v11.1.102.55 (current)
    Video: ATI Radeon 4870 X2 running latest driver (v11.12)
    Browser: All browsers
    I can't figure out where the problem lies, between the probably onboard hardware h264 decoding on the vid card or flash player.
    Any idea why this is happening on an otherwise (old but) quality video card?
    Thanks for tips

    We've got a couple simultaneous preview releases available.
    11.2.300.130 is the Protected Mode for Windows Firefox incubator.  It probably doesn't contain the video fixes you're looking for.
    The Flash Player 11.2 Beta 5 (11.2.202.197) release is the best candidate to test this issue on.
    Here's a link to the download:

  • Green Screen - Only Viewing Stupendous Demo Version yet bought Full Version

    We are completely new to Mac. Total Windows XP geeks but complete newbies to Mac.
    I purchased a Mac Mini because my kids were so impressed with an Apple Demo at the Apple Store of green screen and they are big into making movies. We viewed a kid showing how to green screen and load the demo from Stupendous Software and got that working. Then my kids said to purchase the full version for $25 and I did.
    We tried the install directions from Stupendous but for some reason the demo stuff still shoes up. Help.
    When we bought the Mac Mini we had to download IMovie HD6 because it did not come with the Imovie in Life 08 software that we got when we purchased the Mac Mini.
    Thanks. Mark

  • G"Green Screen" codec problem viewing podcast videos in full screen! HELP!

    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?

    I have the same problem, anything I try to do in full screen just pops right back down to the previous screen. If I play a video I can hear it, but I can't see it.

  • I have Windows 8 and get a green screen when trying to view videos

    I have Windows 8 and get a totally green screen when trying to watch videos.  Any ideas?

    go here with your problematic browser and see if you have flash player installed:  http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
    if you don't see confirmation that you have the flash player installed, go here and get it:  http://get2.adobe.com/flashplayer/

  • Green screen with sound for .mov format

    To correct the green screen by going to control panel (expanded view): QuickTime advanced: Direct X: I unchecked boxes: Direct Draw Acceleraton - Direct Draw on secondary monitor - and Direct 3D video acceleration. No more green screen but will this effect my Direct X?

    Hi, if you have turned off the H.A. and updated your graphic and video drivers to the latest versions then that is all that has been recommended that I know of for this issue.
    The info on this is here:
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html
    Can you see the animation here? It will also tell you what version of Flash Player you have Installed.
    If you see the animation, then Flash Player should be Installed correctly and working.
    Make sure you have Security(Under Internet Options) set to Medium for the Internet Zone.

  • Green Screen on Desktop

    Trying to watch movies and videos and I get a green screen.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    If this is just when streaming online video/movies, try a clean installation of the flash plugin/activeX as follows.
    First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    Flash Player Uninstaller.
    When the download has completed, close all browser windows, open your Download folder and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the PC.
    When windows has reloaded, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
    When the installation has completed, restart the PC.
    If the above doesn't correct the issue, then try the following.
    First of all, download and run the Shockwave uninstaller on the link below.
    http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/shockwave/uninstall/win/sw_uninstaller.exe
    After this has completed, restart the PC.
    When windows has fully reloaded, download and install the latest version of Shockwave on the following link.
    http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
    Again, after this installation, restart the PC.

  • What are the Settings when doing Green Screen?

    I had the green screen settings saved on my computer and somehow they've disappeared. I have been in the meantime just making an educated guess by using these settings:
    Ultra Key Output Composite
    Setting Custom
    Key Color (eyedropper) the green just above the shoulder
    Matte Generation
    Transparency: 50
    Highlight: 0
    Shadow: 50
    Tolerence: 100
    Pedestal: 100
    Matte Cleanup
    choke: 0.0
    Soften: 0.0
    Contrast: 0.0
    Mid Point: 50
    Spill Suppression
    Desaturate: 50
    Range: 25
    Spill: 50
    Luma: 50
    Color Correction
    Saturation: 100
    Hue: 0
    Luminance: 100
    This is my result so far, but I used to have different settings and these were just ones I had to experiment with as I couldn't find the original ones. Here is my upload to YouTube using these settings, I realize I need to invest in more lights which would probably make this process easier:
    link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7mGYyQofOg&feature=share&list=UUxdGY8nhB7waymVljxwuEsA
    and this is the green screen only, although this was done in Adobe Premiere Elements 11 and I can't figure out why it's got that black frame:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zEAOXB5lSQ&feature=share&list=UUxdGY8nhB7waymVljxwuEsA
    This was the green screen shoot that I used the settings that I lost that was given to me from the Adobe Forum some time ago (again I'd have a better result if I had more lighting):
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9_VNk8v0ks&feature=share&list=UUxdGY8nhB7waymVljxwuEsA

    No one can tell you what settings to use, it is unique to every single scene (and sometimes changes during the scene as well!). Start with the eydropper, then tweak settings until it looks as good as possible. Move sliders and watch results. I'm sure you can Google up some tutorials on setting the keyer controls.
    As a constructive criticism, I viewed the YouTube videos (keyed and original) and forgetting about keying for a moment, the quality of the clip itself as just a video is very sub-par. I would never even make any attempt to key such a poor quality of source clip. Sorry. And close the shade, the light coming in from the left on the subjects arm is apparently also glaring into the lens and causing the washed out area in middle of image.
    One does not need to spend big bucks on pro lighting. Go down to the hardware store and get some of the those shiny metal bowl type of light fixtures that have a spring clamp on them, less than $10. And get "GE Reveal" bulbs, which create a nice clean light (standard incansdescent bulbs have a reddish cast).
    Get your subject farther from the green background, and light the background separately. Throw some light at the background, as even as possible, such as one light angled in from each side, and then put another light or two on the subject. That is a good starting point. Use manual white balance on camera and get a good focus and you should be in business.
    Good luck

  • Correcting the Green screen tint appearing while loading images to the screen?

    .... the Infamous Green tint that invades the screen, is still there on a whole lot of images - not all, a problem which occurs while images are loading to the screen for viewing. And it's on both the iMac whee it started, and the Macbook.
    It was a problem that resulted from an Aperture update last year I think.  Any clues?
    Thanks,
    Raphael

    Today, after a year of trying to get rid of thei problem, an Aperture "Craetive" at the Apple store found a way to correct it after contemplating it for about 15 seconds.
    Here is the remedy:
    To get rid of it, select image(s), go to Photo in the menu bar, hold down Option key, click on Generate Preview in the drop down menu. Wait for it to finish processing - a few seconds. Done.
