Hi, sorry to bother you. Did you by any chance get to solve this issue? I'm currently encountering the same problem and I haven´t been able to fix it at all.

Hi All.

Drivers are updated. I tried software only and still have the green background.

When the original file is opened in a medai player, it plays fine. However in Premiere is when it goes wrong.

Any other suggestions?

Sounds as if the clip is just smaller than the sequence. Check the size in pixels of both the clip and the sequence. The size that a media player will show tells you nothing as they zoom to full screen; check the actual size.
