    does the same thing happen if you open a picture on your computer?

    if so it might be related to your monitors colour profile.. try changing to sRGB.

    i read around a bit.. seems few people are having this and related issues..

    the main consensus is to right click the video screen / click settings and disable hardware acceleration. if the settings link is greyed out.. visit this link and perform the same steps http://www.youtube.com/swf_test.html

    I reinstalled Chrome and it seemed to work fine now (youtube). But I have other media players ie pptv and qvod and whenever I use these players the screen turns out green??
