Help with green screen on videos

There must be some bug in the HP laptops that causes so many complaints about the green screen. I had to reinstall my system because there was some problem that my anti virus and malwarebytes couldn't fix. So, low and behold the old green screen on videos reappeared. I tried a former solution given to me by one of HP techs on here. I went to tools, internet options, advanced and then clicked on Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering. Wasn't working. So I download HP Support assistant. In the search I put Green screen on videos. The only thing that came up was to fix a video card. I don't have a video card. I looked at the suggestion on the forum to update Flash player. I got the message that Flash player is installed with 8.1 so not install for it. I realize a great deal of problems are caused by Microsoft negligent creation of 8.1 but hopefully the HP techs can do a better job of addressing this. BTW don'l look forward to updating to Windows 10 if you are paying for an extended warrenty. Microsoft say's if you upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 8 or 8.1, you warrenty is invalidated.

Hi,
Please perform a clean install Flash Player first:

PLEASE Help. Green Screen in Video Playback and all Video Files.

Hello to who ever can help a hand out. I feel very stressed by this whole problem. I have a documentary movie that has been finished and edited. I only had to add a couple more parts to it to finalize the film. However when i went on my computer today, (last time being last week. Where everything had worked properly) all the video playback is green. it has audio of all the video files, but the video shows up green in the playback and the viewer. Any idea what could have happened. (last week i added a 5 jpegs thats it!)
Please anybody with any suggestions, I would be very greateful.

Lots of folks with similar problems. Do your clips play ok in Quicktime Player ? have you done any updates lately.

For some reason, even though I have advanced features checked, the menu with green screen and all those isn't popping up when I drag the video on top of another one.

Hi
I would trash - iMovie pref file - and re-try - sounds like this got faulty.
• Delete iMovie pref. file. iMovie pref. file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD) / Users / "Your account" / Library / Preferences
and is named. (one or more of these)
com.apple.iMovie.plist
com.apple.iMovie3.plist
com.apple.iMovie7.plist
com.apple.iMovie8.plist
com.apple.iMovie9.plist
com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
and find
com.apple.iApps.plist
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out on to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
If You run Mac OS X.7 or more - then the Library in the User-account folder is invisibly and need to be set to be viewable. IT IS NOT in the Library on Root level (when opening MacintoshHD - first window = root level)
( It can be done like this: Open Terminal, then enter:
chflags nohidden ~/Library (exactly like this - space included)
Press return, then restart, and it will always be visible until the next major update, when you do the same thing again. )

Only raw video can be used with green screen background? What?

Latest of all software.
I have played with green screen a lot trying to make it work. The instructions say, and the only way to make it work, is to drag the background only to main time line in project pane, then drag a raw video clip from the events viewer on top of it, and choose green screen. This makes the video clip an add on to the main time line which is the back drop (like a title is an add on to a video clip).
As I have railed in other posts, this doesn't make much sense. But the real problem is you can only drag RAW video onto the back ground from events, and can not edit it any way afterwards (since it is treated as an add on, not the main time line). You can edit the back ground, since it is in the main time line.
The bottom line is: you cannot drag a RAW video onto the project pane, edit it and get it the way you want, and then add a back ground via the green screen. This make no sense.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any ideas?
bob

Well, here is a convoluted method that seems to work...
1) drag the raw video to the project pane, edit to your heart's content.
2) save it as a .mov file (i.e. you are all done with it no more changes...ever).
3) import that .mov file File, Import as a new event.
4) drag the background(s) on to project pane, make it long enough for video
5) drag RAV .mov file (which is really a finished edited file) on to background, choose green screen).
You now have an edited .mov with a green screen background.
Could green screen be implemented more poorly? It would be hard to see how.
I still feel like I am missing something. Any ideas?

Green screen for videos and movies

i upgraded all the software for itunes and quicktime. using another post for 'green screen for video previews', i modified some settings in quicktime and one of them now has strips of static across the green. quite frustrating...

I could be off the mark, but you may need to install the version of iTunes here: iTunes for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards).
And then repair/reinstall QuickTime 7.7.6 for Windows.
If that works for you then the next time Apple Software Update or iTunes tells you there is a new version revisit the first link. It should be updated with a new "for older video cards" version that will work with QuickTime.

Getting green screen/no video with ATV- Onkyo AVR

Problem: When I turn on AppleTV, I get a solid green screen on my television display. Apparently it is only a problem with the video signal, as the audio still works.
I have just started experiencing this problem. For the past 2 years, it has worked fine. I turned on ATV to listen to music the other day and there was the green screen. I changed nothing prior to this.
Setup:
ATV Gen 3   -->   AVR Onkyo TX-NR609 -->   LG LED LCD Television (47”)
Troubleshooting shows that the ATV works fine when plugged directly into the LG TV HDMI port, so I’m assuming that rules out the ATV box itself and the HDMI cable. Also, the HDMI cable works fine when used with another component (DVD player).
When the green screen is displayed, I can play a YouTube video from my iphone via Airplay and hear the audio but not see the video.
DirectTV and DVD player work fine through the AVR and TV.
When ATV is initially turned on, the Apple logo is displayed for a few moments, then disappears and the green screen appears.
I have tried resetting ATV. I have turned off entire system and turned it back on. I have the latest firmware on the LG TV.
Any idea what I can do to fix this?   Thanks.

Change the Apple TV resolution:
Press and hold the Menu and Up button on your Apple Remote for six seconds.
The Apple TV will automatically cycle to the next resolution at approximately 20 second intervals.
Press Play on the Apple Remote to keep the current resolution or Select to manually cycle to the next resolution.
Try a different HDMI port on the receiver, if this has not been tried already.
Contact Onkyo for assistance, their may be a firmware update for the receiver. Although this would not explain why it worked previously and now is not working properly.
Also, see if there is a way to reset the receiver to a factory "out of the box" state to clear up any settings issues on the receiver that may be causing the issue.

Can Final Cut Express 3.5 work with green screen video?

Forgive my lack of technical terms but I am interested in my next FCE project being a bit more technical with some animations done in front of a green screen. Can FCE "erase" the green so I can overlay it to another background and or movie?
Cheers,
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Hi Lori.
In case you need some more practical advice:-
FCE has several different filters built in for Green and Blue Screen work.
FCE can also be used for animation and compositing.

Re my post about Green screen on videos

I have a HP Pavilion 17-e020us Notebook PC with Windows 8.1. Fairly new computer but now suddenly have green screen on my video's with no pictures. I am not real tech savy. I can download drivers but if you try to tell me to change some system files or slow down acceleration, I have not been able to find the place to do that even though they tell you to go to a place on here to do it, I have never found it. Is this a virus or malware? Hope to hear soon or I will have to call for support. I do have a warrenty on this.

Dear sbodea43 -
I understand you are having "green screen" issues.
Try this:
1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Click the "Tools" button, and then click "Internet Options."
3. Click the "Advanced" tab, and then browse to the "Accelerated" graphics section.
4. Click to check the box for "Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering".
5. Click Apply, and then click OK.
Please let me know if this resolves this issue.

Hello @jims12345,
I understand that you are having issues with getting a green screen when you are trying to watch videos on your HP Pavilion 23 All-in-One Desktop PC running Windows 8.1.

The Green Screen and Video Problems

Hello,
I've read through the issues and answers on this topic but some of the things are working and some not. For isntance, I was able to resolve one of my issues with some other fixes I had found through general online forums for the "green" screen which plays with only audio. It seems to be working for me on you tube but not on Facebook anymore alhtough Facebook videos worked the first time around when I rebooted.
What I did was go into my internet options and under accelerated graphics I ticked use software rendering instead of...
and under the security tab I ticked enable 64 bit processes in enhanced protected... Should the Enhanced protected mode be enabled as well then? Should I tick that option.
I also treid to do what the answers recommended...such as right clicking on the video in Facebook when it is playing and while I do get a pop up I get settings options or global settings and adobe flash player info...clicking on settings gives me options but none for the "display", only for my microphone, camera and storage. If I click on global settings, it takes me to flash player help. And last option I get my version of Adobe info, which is version 13.00.214. So no option to untick disable accelerated graphics cause I think I've done this in control panel already.
But now why it is working with youtube and not with Facebook videos I also tried to play some home videos like wmv files and other video files in my windows media flash player and there I get a black screen but still audio plays.
My computer is an HP Pavillion Notebook PC and it came with Windows 8.1 already installed. My Graphics Display adapter is an AMD Radeon R5 Graphics Card.
So what the heck do I do now. Should I install newer Adode Player? Even when unticking the accelerated graphis option, this is really not a solution to the deeper problem and issue, because then it slows down your graphics?
My computer is not even a week old and I hate having to always download fixes and constant updates and spend hours researching and trying to fix a problem that really should not occur to begin with. Why are there so many glitches with Windows? Is this a problem related with windows updates as well. Active X controls? Compatibility isuses with 64 bit processes. Should I use Firefox. I did that with my old HP which finally kicked the bucket and that is why I had to buy a new one. I had to replace my battery before even a year and my warranty battery did not last that long either and then the thing finally overheated and died. But I had lots of similar things happen before with last HP laptop so is it Windows or is it HP or is it browsers, players?
I am sorry if I am unloading on you...I don't mean too but it is just soooo frustrating as a consumer to have to always go through these kinds of things. I use my laptop for self employment so please help!!!!!
Thanks for letting me vent.. I would appreciate your help, thank you.

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I am sorry you have experience any issues. I have looked into your issue with the Video issues.
Have you uninstalled Internet Explorer?
Have you tried Google Chrome?
It already includes Adobe® Flash® Player built-in. Google Chrome will automatically update when new versions of Flash Player are available. Adobe are on version 15. Here is a spot to update. This does have a link to Google Chrome as well.
Here is a link to common Flashplayer issues.
I would try a system restore as this would undo any changes that might have happened with a Microsoft update. Sometimes they have not finished or been installed on the Notebook.
Hope this helps you.

Ghostly figure when trying to clone with green screen

So i was messing with the green screen feature on imovie by putting two videos of myself together to get the cloning effect. The only problem is that when i do this my other self looks ghostly. he seems to be transparent into the other video. So i looked up online how to fix this and people said to swap the videos but this also didnt help. now the other video looks ghostly and transparent into the other video. i also rerecorded it multiple times with the same effect. to record this i am using my isight on my macbook pro. is there a way to make the videos more solid and not bleed or be transparent into each other? and yes i did crop it and one of the videos were still ghostly looking.

When cloning and putting two figures side by side you do not need a green screen. there are many videos of people doing it on youtube without a green screen

Backgrounds in Final Cut Pro for use with green screens

I have a class that has filmed some people talking in front of a green screen and now they are looking for a background of an awards ceremony or something close to that. Any help is greatly appreciated.

All you need to do is get yourself a camera, set up something like a ceremony with the aid of your kids (ask them to maximize the use of their wardrobe and props and to invite friends if number is an issue) shoot a few wide shots, then use those shots as BG, blurring them slightly.
The advantage of doing this is that you can use/set lights properly in order to match your talking heads video shot with a green screen as BG (People talking).
