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:

Hi I get a green screen when I play videos in itunes even in the store when i try to see previews. Any ideas what is wrong. I have quicktime installed.

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Adobe flash player green screen when playing videos

Hello,
I get this green screen when I play videos on my IE9 browser on a Win 7 (64-bit) desktop computer. This green screen appears when playing a video which uses the Adobe flash player (version 11.5.502.146) but happens only after the an initial portion of the video (entire video is loaded already) is played and the rest of the video is green screen and is played at accelerated rates, as if it was being fast forwarded. The audio from the video is also affected as it plays static of different frequencies.
The videos I've been watching are from http://xin.msn.com/ and http://www.youtube.com/. I've also tried to solve this with disabling hardware acceleration from the flash player's menu, and uninstalling and reinstalling and then rebooting the computer, both of which are different attempts which did not resolve the issue.
Help to fix this issue on hand will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Please try the solution outlined in the post below and let us know how it works for you.

My QT 7 (which I paid for) shows a green screen when the video is stopped.

I used to be able to scrub through a video to find and isolate frames. Now I only see a green screen unless the video is playing. Anyone know why this is happening? Thanks,

Are you using a MacBook Pro model with dual display cards? (I.e., check your profiller.) If so, Snow Leopard and Lion users have indicated that switching from "Battery Saver" to "Performace" mode in the System Preferences "Energy Saver" window fixed this problem. Not sure if this also works for Leopard systems but it might be worth looking at.

Hi,
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.

I have got a new HP 15 Notebook PC. When I try to play a video on Youtube or Iplaye I can hear the sound but don't get a picture, I just get a green screen. How do I correct this.

Hi,
Try the following.
Right click on the video ( green screen ) and select Settings.
Remove the tick from the box next to 'Enable Hardware Acceleration' and then click close.
Refresh the current page and see if the video now plays Ok.

Hi,
Open window Control Panel, open Windows Updates, select View update history in the left hand pane, then select 'To remove an update, see Installed Updates'. Let the list populate, then locate update KB3001237, right click it and select Uninstall - when this has completed, restart the notebook.
Download and reinstall the latest driver for your particular graphics chip - the drivers and software page for your notebook is Here.
Restart after this reinstallation.
When windows has reloaded, reinstall update KB3001237 via the standalone installation options on the following link.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/3001237
Again, restart after the installation.

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/
p.s. untick mcafee unless you're certain you want it.

My macbook pro (2010 13inch) is really laggy when I'm using apps like iTunes and safari. the arrow on the screen seems to not respond and is laggy and when viewing videos it can be really laggy. I just want to know if it was a problem i could fix, thanks.

You might start with:
Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.
If the above reveals nothing helpful, then create a new user account. Log out of your account and log into the new account. Do the problems cease?

Why is there a green screen when trying to watch any videos on any website?

I currently having trouble trying to watch any type of videos. On Youtube, Abc Player, any videos I try to watch all it gives me a green screen. Audio is playing fine. But the display is just a green sreen. I've tried about all I can do but it gives me nothing.
I've clicked on the right on a video into settings. But the Adobe would not show me the Display to Enable the hardware. I don't know what else to do.
I've also checked if the ActiveX Filtering was checked I unchecked it and stuff but still gave me a green screen on every video.
I'm just tried of not being able to fix this. The Adobe Flash Player it up to date. I have a HP ENVY m6 Notebook PC. With Windows 8 Installed.

If you have AppleCare and/or iPod Nano is still under warranty, give them a call. If not, take the computer to your local Apple Store or AASP. The staff will tell you what is wrong w/it and let you know if it can be fixed after it is examined.

Has anybody got a green screen when trying to see a video? I do almost every time.

I have a Gateway i7 computer using Windows 8. Everyting has worked great until last week. Now every time I try to see a video such a You Tube videos all I get is solid green screen where the video should be. I get the same thing trying to watch a video for a upcoming game. I used to like the color green - not so much now.
