problems with playback of video

[jba6511]

i have a problem where when i play the movie it is in green. The entire movie is like watching a black and white movie but in green. I did not personally convert this movie but it came from a reliable source. I checked the codecs using gspot and everything came out fine. What could be causing this green? Any suggestions for a fix?

We Need more information. Format, codecs, etc:

That problem usually ocurrs due to the wrong decoder taking charge of decoding the video. Example: Using FFDSHOW to decode MPEG2 when you should be using Ligos or Elecard. FFDSHOW does poorly and gives me a green screen every time.
