I’m having a weird issue with Adobe Premiere Pro and I can’t figure it out.
Every video I import (MP4 H.264, from my phone or downloaded online) shows completely wrong colors — like a purple/green tint, almost like a negative or broken color channels.
Important details:
- Fresh install of Premiere Pro
- No effects applied at all
- Happens with ANY video I import
- Already set to Rec.709
- Already tried creating new sequences/projects
- Renderer is locked to “Mercury Playback Engine Software Only” (I don’t have a dedicated GPU)
What I already tried:
- Disabled all effects (none were applied anyway)
- Checked Lumetri (nothing active)
- Tried different video files (same issue)
- Changed sequence settings
- Verified color space (Rec.709)
My PC build:
- CPU: Ryzen 5 5600G (integrated Vega graphics)
- GPU: none (using integrated graphics)
- RAM: (add how much you have, ex: 16GB)
- Storage: SSD
- OS: Windows 10/11
It really feels like a decoding or driver issue rather than something inside the project.
Has anyone experienced this or knows a fix? I’m thinking it might be related to hardware decoding or AMD drivers, but not sure.
Thanks in advance.
