Question

Green and black (mostly green) screen when playing videos

I just recently did a clean install of Windows 10 a few days ago and I've come up with a few issues. In the attempt of using multiple video players online, I'm either presented with a green or black screen accompanied with the audio of the video. Mostly I've come across video players with a green screen when played; the issue can quickly be fixed if I jump to a later time in the video and then move it back to the beginning of the video to resume watching. For video players with black screens, I could not (with what little to no IT knowledge I have) get it to work. A good example of this is any videos I try to play in Dailymotion. Other than YouTube, these issues persist with all basic video players I try. I'd appreciate any feedback and will answer any questions if needed, thank you!

Computer Info:

  • Operating system: Windows 10 Home Edition 64-bit
  • Web browser and version: Mozilla Firefox 39.0 32-bit
  • Flash Player version: Adobe Flash Player 18.0.0.209

If you use AMD Hardware Graphiccard on Windows 10. - Use Ati Catalyst 14.12 for Hardware Accelerated Video. Green Screenscreen will go away. - The AMD Generic Drivers from Windows 10 has no Video Acceleration and AMD Catalyst 15.7.1 , 15.7 , 15,6  and older ones for some Graphiccards.

If you use Windows 10 ~ 32Bit  ~Download 14.12 Drivers for win 8.1 32Bit... Install them manually the Display Driver.

If you use Windows 10 ~ 64Bit  ~Download 14.12 Drivers for win 8.1 64Bit... Install them manually the Display Driver.

Hi,

Could you please provide the video URL for which you are getting green screen?

Is this happening on edge and IE also?

I speak for Thread opener -

Doesnt matter all Flash Videos nearly start with Green Video. A URL : Akamai Edge Flash Demo


Here i took a video of mine similar Problem : Flash - YouTube

System Windows 10 - AMD E350 - Happens on Windows Edge Browser + Firefox both same.

Tried on Firefox older versions of Flash doesnt helped. Looks like something is broke on Windows 10 side or Flash Side or Graphiccard Vendor. Now we can w8 10 Years to fix this Problem i believe.
Why my internal HTML5 Player is Display + Running without any Problems... NO Performance Hit not Choppy its running like it should be.

But Flash Video is broken for sure.

Lucky my wife is playing - only her Flash Games on Facebook wich works... But some Videos who are based on Flash Video shows Green...

Yep, everything worked fine until I updated from Windows 8.1 to 10. In replying to the first guy, I tried finding a video that would just even load the page properly on all three browsers. I found even more issues while doing so. Some videos remain green or black, some even play normally despite others not working normally on the same site. I have no clue what's going on. This is all just a big headache that came along with the update to Windows 10. I do hope this doesn't take ten years to fix though.
