The green Film clip means a shadow file has been generated, and the yellow one means the clip is not yet generated, but will be.

Do not use any clip until the whole project is green or your files will start acting strangely.

Once a clip is green, it is of lower quality making it easier for PD to handle it. When the film is produced the original quality will be reinstated automatically. If you don't want this option, turn off shadow files.

For what seems a quicker alternative to shadow files see the following post http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/43102.page;jsessionid=963AF9C769AED2E675C904768C58DA2F

I may be corrected here, but...........

If you are editing the files with the yellow film clip, it means you are editing with "shadow files" switched on.

This means that PD is trying to make shadow files while you are editing and this isn't good. The only good way to edit is with all the clips green or with no flags at all. If you prefer yellow as you say, turn "shadow files" off (EDIT - PREFERENCES - GENERAL) deselect "enable HD video Processing".

Once this is done you will not see any coloured flags and it is OK to edit. As said before, if you want to use shadow files (green flag) wait for them all to turn green before editing Panny TM10, GH2, GH4,
