  Video Playback in CS4 discolored

  Posted by Sharon Mckittrick on June 4, 2009 at 6:18 pm

  All of a sudden the video playback shows as a greenish or reddish tint. It doesn’t export like that but it’s really annoying and I’m wondering what is causing it. I have checked my video driver and have the latest Intel driver. It was working fine yesterday, and now it’s misbehaving. Here’s a pic of what it looks like:

  

  Can someone please tell me what’s going on? Thank you so much!

  CS4 and video drivers are having lots of reported havoc. Try uninstalling your video driver then reinstalling it first. Also rolling back to some older drivers might help. The video playback is “video overlay” so the problem lies with the video card, trouble shoot there first.

  Hi!

  I’ve got the exact same Problem. I am using ATI’s Mobility Radeon X1900 Graphics adapter in a Fujitsu Siemens Notebook.

  The problem arose with Premiere CS4, it is not there with other software (as After Effects CS4 or Premiere CS3).

  I tried the original ATI driver (8.31.100.2, included in Windows Vista 32-Bit) and the video overlay seemed to work (but stuttered a lot)

  When using their newest drivers (8.371.0.0), the color displacement is there.

  I am thinking maybe it has to do with a malfunctioning video overly hardware acceleration included in the newest drivers. Does anyone know of a way to circumvent it?

  Thanks for your help!

  Paul
