Green colors and/or garbled during video playback with ATI GPU

[dpassent]

I am starting this new thread to answer the questions that raised in other places

I have ATI in one of my machines. With older drivers I had green colors playback. I upgraded to latest catalyst drivers from ATI webpage and now I don't have green during playback - I have garbaged display. Good video takes upper left corner of my monitor (regardless of video resolution) and 3/4 of the screen is taken by some strange artifacts. I have no problems on the machines with NVidia cards. So problem with green display is for sure connected to ATI drivers and ATI cards.

Interesting versioning scheme.

Also interesting is that even under Windows, ATI is having the same issue as it was under Linux.

Did you bother to read other threads? There is a problem with some ATI Cards right now. Go grab some Nvidia and you all set
