Without understanding how the footage was shot, it’s hard to make recommendations on how to handle it in post. Green screen footage is as much or more dependent on how well it was lit/exposed as it is on how it’s processed in the keyer.
The very fact that you have grain problems causes me to wonder if the footage wasn’t well lit enough to shoot without gain…

There are some free resources for the Titler in PPro…search for ‘style4type’ and you should come up with the Adobe add-on pages.
As far as animation, Chris pretty much covered it. You can use the motion properties to move a Premiere Pro Title around once it’s placed in the timeline, but AE is the heavy-lifter… And it’s also a much heavier learning curve, but well-worth the time spent.

Keep in mind that MPEG2-DVD are standard definition (NTSC or PAL) for red laser DVDs.
1440×1080 is high definition, 1.33 PAR, which would be found under MPEG2-Blu Ray, and only possible to burn onto a Blu Ray disc.

Sorry…there isn’t a way to zoom…just scale the window like you are doing.

What if you just manually move the codec file out of that directory to the desktop and try to run it?

Well…
The common factor in 2 of the 3 here seems to be the ‘mc_enc_hevc.dll’ file…which is a Main Concept HEVC/H.265 codec.
Since it’s in the C:\Users\Public\Documents\AdobeInstalledCodecs\1.0\ folder, it would seem that it was installed by Adobe even though this file is sometimes found in freeware DivX codec sets as well from what I can find on it.
Have you updated CC 2015 lately? Perhaps this is new and conflicting with something?
Uninstalling CC2015 might be a good test method…see if CS6 works then. At least you’ll know the culprit…

Need some more info…
How is the media getting to the timeline? Are you dragging it? If you’re using keystrokes, are the tracks in the timeline set up properly to allow the edit?

In CS6 there were a few effects that didn’t make it into the Mac version as I recall.
I don’t think it had much to do with features ‘trickling back’ so much as getting everything to work with GPUs on both systems…

In general terms, you’d start with shutter at 2X your framerate.
24fps=1/48 shutter
25fps=1/50 shutter…and so on.
Obviously you can adjust shutter speed to change how the footage looks, action is captured, etc, so these aren’t requirements, but a place to start your experiments.

If you’re viewing the end product on a computer monitor, you’ll see the interlacing as the display is progressive.
I have delivered progressive in cases where an interlaced export wasn’t very good, but if you’re coming from 24 (or 23.976), the conversion to 29.97i should look better.
