Quicktime Pro 7.66 now has Green screen?

Hi,
We just upgraded to LION 10.7.4 and I'm noticing on a few of my Quicktime movies - when paused, the screen turns green?  THAT'S never happened before.  I'm sure it's an upgrade issue, when I go back to our clone from last week, it doesn't do that!
We use QT Pro 7.66. on a MacBook Pro (about 1 1/2 years old) - always perfect results, but now this?
No big deal, just a little annoying.  It only does this on a few of the movies we've exported out of Final Cut Pro.  Can't find the pattern?
Anyone else seeing a green screen when paused?  I'm lonely out here! 
Thanks,
Larry

OMG!!  YOU'RE a genius!  Works PERFECTLY!!  Every QT movie I have plays perfectly - NOW - when I have the Graphics set to "Integrated Only".  If I switch to "Discrete Only" - they FAIL, meaning I see the green screen.  Switch back to "Integrated Only" they're perfect again.
Thank you Mike.  I don't know how you guys do this!  Just curiously, what exactly am I doing by switching?  I don't know anything about Graphics cards!  My MacBook Pro is about 1 1/2 years old, It's a 2.66Ghz Intel Core 7 with 8 gig RAM.  For Final Cut Pro X I changed it's configuration.  (You'd be proud of me!) I have a 120gig SSD drive AND moved the 'older' TB drive I swapped to to where the DVD drive is.  So I have no DVD but 2 HD in my Mac.  (I guess all that is irrelavent, though!)
I didn't even know I have 2 graphics cards in my Mac!
What's the downside to keeping it set to "Integrated Only"?  Can I leave it set to that?
Thanks very very much again.  These chat boards are just terrific!
Larry

  • Imported Footage in now a green screen

    Using Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 on a Mac OSX Lion 10.7.3 system.  Imported footage into FCP is now showing in the Viewer as a green screen.  Also, I cannot import new footage now thru "Import - Sony XD Cam."  System was working fine thru 2013 and was powered down and not used for two weeks.  Powered up and Compressor had issues and now FCP.  Any thoughts?

    I found a thread that answered this problem which many are dealing with.  Try the Perian downloads below.  It did the trick for me. THANKS MAK!
    I also had a similar problem to most people here. Cannot playback XDCAM files after upgrading from 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I called Apple who suggested a fresh install of Snow Leopard without upgrading the 'ProApps QuickTime Codecs 1.0.3' and copy the contents of the Library/QuickTime form the fresh install into my QT library. However, I decided to seek the file(s) that is the cause which is the AppleHDV.Component file. I copied the faulty one to my desktop (so I had a backup) and downloaed:
    PerianXDCam.component.zip -> PerianXDCam.component
    PerianHDV.component.zip -> PerianHDV.component
    from this website: http://blog.lib.umn.edu/mcfa0086/discretecosine/164630.html
    Once unzipped, copy into the Library/QuickTime folder and this should solve your problem, until Apple and Sony resolve this issue.
    Good Luck,

  • Trying to export movie from QuickTime Pro to AVI and getting white screen

    Hi there,
    I am trying to export a movie from QuickTime Pro to an an AVI file. It goes through the process as if everything has worked, but when I open the finished file, all I get is a white screen with no audio or picture.
    I need to save lectures from school from the school website to my computer so that I can watch them when I do not have internet access. QuickTime gives me the option to save the video straight from the web, but as soon as I turn off my AirPort it tells me that I need internet to continue watching the movie..
    I need some way to get the files to my computer. Any suggestions?

    I am trying to export a movie from QuickTime Pro to an an AVI file
    AVI is just a container ... specifically, which codec are you using when exporting? And why export to AVI?
    QuickTime gives me the option to save the video straight from the web, but as soon as I turn off my AirPort it tells me that I need internet to continue watching the movie
    That usually means that your system doesn't have the codec installed needed to view the video, but your web browser is using a plugin that does. What format are the web videos? Flash?

  • Video plays sound but has green screen no picture

    i have tryed to play videos on facebook and youtube all i get is the sound  and a green screen  ihave down loaded amd updates  this worked for a while  but it has turned back to the green screen  
    This question was solved.

    I am using the latest Flash player. I have Macafee already preloaded. Where are you seeing "uncheck the box to install..."
    I continue to right click on the screen, but it is not giving me a Settings option. Just a lot of other menu items including "other options". Exploring that srill gives me no option to disable hardware. I'm dazed and confused!

  • Itunes video playback has green screen

    When I try to play videos in Itunes all I get is a green screen. I have tried almost every fix I have found but I can't seem to fix it. My computer is a Dell Inspiron 5160 running XP. My video driver is a XGI VolariXP vs.2.116DELL. My hardrive just recently corrupted, and I can't remember how I got rid of the green screen before.

    Everything seems to be pointing towards the video drivers ... it might also be worth checking if you're getting similar sorts of green screens with your WMP, as per the following Microsoft document (they've got some suggestions we haven't looked at yet):
    [The screen may appear black or green during playback when the Windows Media Player control is embedded in a Web page|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909554]
    ... but, I've also been checking on the Dell website, and it looks like there could be some strange issues that crop up for folks if the drivers on your Inspiron model are reinstalled in the wrong order after an operating system reinstall:
    [Technical Support for Inspiron 5160: How to Download and Install Drivers in the Correct Order|http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dsn/document?c =us&docid=1A0C0937D62A8739E0401E0A55174744&doclang=en&l=en&s=gen]
    ... so I'm not sure which of those two directions it would be most prudent for you to pursue next. (We're pretty much at the extreme edge of my technical competence with video things now, and I don't want to put you wrong, Sportsman.)
    So, if nobody else here drops by to contribute any additional advice, I think it might be a good idea to check in with a Dell technician for an opinion on what to try next.

  • Can't register upgraded Quicktime Pro (invalid registration) Now what?

    Just upgraded to Quicktime pro. I'm running the current Quicktime 7 Player. Followed instructions, went to system preferences, opened Quicktime registration, filled out info, then entered number given to me by Apple for Quicktime Pro. Then I opened Quicktime, and then INVALID REGISTRATION came up in the registration icon. Tried it four times. Even copied the registration # from Apple receipt but still the same message: INVALID REGISTRATION.

  • I reset settings. Now has blank screen with Apple . How do I get to load?

    I Hit reset setting on mini iPad to see if would help programs from going out. Now. all I have is a black screen with Apple  showing with white line below it. Doesn't like trying to open. haven't got it to do updates either. Can anyone advise me on how to get to get ipad restarted again?

    Try this. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

  • Ipod stuck and froze, now has blank screen! HELP!

    I was playing on an app and all of a sudden my screen froze. Even though it froze I still was able to touch and somewhat play the game, but i couldn't return to the home screen. I was able to get to the music/song section by double clicking the home button but it was still frozen. I also followed directions on how to restart my ipod but it only made it worse by leaving me with an unusable blank white screen.Not only that but I tried plugging it into my computer with the USB but nothing came up & I wasn't able charge it.
    HOW CAN I FIX THIS????
    I HAVE A ROAD TRIP TOMORROW AND I NEED THIS IPOD FOR IT!

  • Keynote won't export to quicktime get a green screen.

    Been using Macs for a long time but am new to Keynote '09. When trying to export a slideshow in Quicktime to use in iMovie, I get window with a progress bar and a green screen and a Quicktime file that plays back a green screen!
    I have searched the forums and web and cannot find much about this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The slideshow has just 9 slides with photos and animated transitions, no audio, no video. I want to use the file as my title sequence in an iMovie. I did try to export directly to iTunes and had no luck there.

    Have you tried creating a simple three slide movie with just text and exporting that to see if ANYTHING will work?

  • HT4623 Backed up our iPhone on iTunes, started the update.  Got an error notice, were disconnected from server.  Phone now has an unchangabel plug in to iTunes screen but cant contact iPhone server. What do we do?

    Backed up iPhone to iTunes on our computer then started the software update. Got an error notice and phone now has a screen indicating to plug in to iTunes that we can't change even if we turn the phone off and back on. Every attempt to connect to the iPhone software update server comes back with a could not contact message.  What do we do? How do we proceed?

    Many thanks for your answer.
    Before starting a new discussion I tried everything of your link, google etc... nothing works for me.
    I´m using a pc running windows 8, last version of itunes etc.. tried using different usb ports, uninstalling avast antivirus but nothing works.
    Any other suggestion?

  • So now I own Quicktime Pro, I can never update Quicktime?

    I decided to buy Quicktime Pro last month. Then this morning I am notified that a Quicktime update was available. As I begin installing it I am warned that I will lose Quicktime Pro should I proceed and will have to purchase it again!
    WHAT!? This is ridiculous. After PAYING for Quicktime Pro I am now unable to update Quicktime without losing Quicktime Pro. Please tell me I have this wrong.
    Is this how paying customers are treated? I would never use pirate software, but things like this almost makes you understand why some people do.
      Windows XP Pro  

    In the installation warning it says:
    "IMPORTANT NOTICE TO QUICKTIME PRO USERS:
    INSTALLATION OF QUICKTIME 7 WILL DISABLE THE QUICKTIME PRO FUNCTIONALITY IN PRIOR VERSIONS OF QUICKTIME. IF YOU PROCEED WITH THIS INSTALLATION, YOU MUST PURCHASE A NEW QUICKTIME 7 PRO KEY TO REGAIN QUICKTIME PRO FUNCTIONALITY. AFTER INSTALLATION, VISIT www.apple.com/quicktime TO PURCHASE A QUICKTIME 7 PRO KEY."
    If I update Quicktime, surely that makes whatever I had before a 'prior version' of Quicktime. I have Quicktime 7.1.6. If I update to Quicktime 7.2, in my understanding of English, anything below 7.2 then becomes a 'prior version'.
    I was going to try email someone at Apple for clarification, but they make it impossible to find anyone to email on their site.
    Thanks for the reply Dick Napoli, but can I get a 2nd and 3rd opinion as to what will happen to my Quicktime Pro if I upgrade? I really don't want to waste my money.

  • 'Green Screen' Special Effects with iSight & iMovie?

    I need to record a short (30 - second) movie of just me talking. I thought I would record it with my iSight camera & Quicktime.
    If I use a green screen. . .can I swap in a different background in iMovie? If I can, does anyone have a good idea for a home-made green screen? (thought maybe I would just go to the art store and get a piece of green posterboard unless anyone has a better idea)
    TIA,
    Larry

    Hello Larry,
    "Green screen" recording is a function that is built into my Sony camcorders. Sony calls it "superimposing." Because it is easy to use the built-in function, I use my camcorders for all my superimposed video work.
    You can read about how it works on a Sony camcorder in pages 118 through 120 of this Operating Instructions manual. If you have a camcorder, yours may have the function, too, although it might have a different name if your camcorder is not a Sony.
    I do not know how to do with in QuickTime Pro. If you get no better answer here and cannot find the answers in the QT Pro Tutorial or Help pages, try searching or posting this question in the QuickTime for Mac OS Forum.

  • Flashing blue and green screen

    Hi, I upgraded to Quicktime Pro 7 and now no videos, wether .mov, .avi or anything show up in the player. I get sound fine...the visual is just a flashing green and blue screen. Also, this is a product I purchased, and now I am told I can't get support from an apple technician. What kinda support is that?! I can't talk to anyone who will help me troubleshoot?
    Thanks to anyone out there that can help me.

    Quicktime Control Panel / Advanced tab
    under Video switch to "Safe mode". Quit QuickTime and any open browser and try the file again.
