Hello, This is first time for me to create new topic here and I am new for this CyberLink forum.
I wanted to ask your help if possible. I have problem to find the problem to solve, but I can't find.
You can see the attached image that I am trying to get rid of the green line on edge, but I can't.
In case, you want to know what hardware do I have on computer and camcorder.

Camcorder: Sony HD Camcorder, HDR-CX160 3.3 mega pixels.
Computer: Dell - 560 Inspiron with 6 RAM and 2T HD. Windows 7 (Professional)
Video Graphic Card: EVGA - GeForce GT 610 2GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 Graphics Card
Screen Resolution: 1920x1080
While shooting the camcorder at green screen in the garage, The 2 lights are little far from the green screen like about 10 feet away each.

I took a look at Corel VideoStudio Pro X5 and it looks good but I rather to use Cyberlink PowerDirector 11 because PD has more features than Corel Video Studio, Also PD is very easy to handle and control.

Now, I have one problem with green screen on PD. Can you please help me to fix it out on PD?
Many Thanks.
Rusty

I have had that problem before. My best guess that it is not enough back lighting. Make sure you have a light from behind pointing at you back, preferable a little overhead. If that doesn't help, then I have no idea because there are people on here that can make it work and look professional. __________________________________

You could try adding the "Replace Color" effect so that the color of the green outline can be changed to a color that more closely matches the rest of the green chroma color. I think blue or red would have been a better color to chromakey. Your subject has green sweatshirt and blonde hair and makes spillover likely.
