Title: Green Preview with Fujifilm X-T30 H.264 Footage on AMD GPU

Issue:

Fujifilm X-T30 H.264 MOV footage displays solid green frames in Adobe Premiere Pro 2026 when hardware-accelerated decoding is enabled.

System:

- OS: Windows 11 Pro

- CPU: Intel Core i5-12400F

- GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT 8GB

- RAM: 32GB

- Drivers tested: AMD Adrenalin 26.10.1 and 26.7.1

Footage specifications:

H.264 High Profile, 1920×1080, 50fps, approximately 102Mbps, 8-bit 4:2:0, full-range, MOV container.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Enable H.264 hardware-accelerated decoding in Premiere Preferences → Media.

2. Restart Premiere.

3. Import original Fujifilm X-T30 MOV footage.

4. Play the footage in Source Monitor.

Actual result: Solid green video frames.

Expected result: Normal playback using GPU hardware decoding.

Troubleshooting:

- Disabling hardware decoding fixes the issue.

- Remuxing MOV to MP4 does not help.

- Changing color metadata to BT.709 does not help.

- Both AMD driver versions exhibit the issue.

- FFmpeg D3D11VA successfully decodes the original footage without errors.

- Re-encoding with FFmpeg libx264 fixes the issue, even with hardware decoding enabled.

- Original footage plays correctly in VLC and on macOS.

- Similar behavior occurs in DaVinci Resolve.

Request: Please investigate potential incompatibility between Fujifilm H.264 bitstreams and AMD hardware decoding in Premiere Pro. I can provide original and re-encoded samples for testing.

Hello @talented_beauty3594

Thank you for your bug report! I sent you a private message with an upload link. We could absolutely use some test files that exhibit this issue to help us identify the cause. Thank you for offering to provide them. Let me know if you received the DM.

Best,

Amy

Additional technical details and troubleshooting results

I have performed further testing to isolate this issue.

System:

Windows 11 Pro
Intel Core i5-12400F (no integrated GPU)
AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT 8GB
32GB DDR4 RAM
AMD Adrenalin drivers tested: 26.10.1 and 26.7.1

Original Fujifilm X-T30 footage:

H.264/AVC High Profile, Level 5
1920×1080, 50 fps, approximately 102 Mbps
8-bit YUV 4:2:0, full-range
MOV container, PCM 24-bit audio
Color metadata: BT.709 primaries, SMPTE 170M transfer and matrix

Test results:

Original MOV: solid green frames with hardware decoding enabled.
Hardware decoding disabled: normal playback.
MOV remuxed to MP4 without re-encoding: still green.
H.264 color metadata rewritten to BT.709: still green.
FFmpeg D3D11VA decoding: 504 frames decoded, zero reported errors.
Re-encoded using FFmpeg libx264: normal playback with hardware decoding enabled.
Original footage plays correctly in VLC and on a MacBook Pro 2019.
Similar behavior occurs in DaVinci Resolve when hardware decoding is enabled.

Important observation:

The issue appears to depend on characteristics of the original Fujifilm H.264 bitstream rather than the MOV container or color metadata alone.

FFmpeg can decode the original footage through D3D11VA, but Premiere Pro displays green frames when hardware decoding is enabled.

I can provide the original MOV, working re-encoded MP4, and FFmpeg logs to help reproduce the issue.

Please let me know if additional diagnostics are required.
