Body: <p>After uploading to YouTube, the green in my video is being processed with a weird tint (like a sea foam green). In the image below, I'm hoping for the blueish/green color on the left, but that color only shows in Safari (and sometimes Chrome) - otherwise it's mostly showing the color incorrectly.</p>
  
  <p>Even more strange is when I use Quicktime on my Mac to screen record the video when the color is displaying incorrectly on YouTube, the end result when I play it back in quicktime shows the correct color. For example, watch my YouTube video: <div class="youtube-embed"><div>
                  <iframe width="640px" height="395px" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/heuPCADkS0o?start=0"></iframe>
              </div></div>, then see the screen capture here: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7-2T7XJFKEKdklRQUpDaTdUYVU/view" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7-2T7XJFKEKdklRQUpDaTdUYVU/view</a>.</p>
  
  <p>This is only happening with the green color, all the other colors are correct. I'm exporting from Final Cut Pro on a Mac, I've tried my color display on my Mac at Color LCD and Color LCD Calibrated. Any idea why the color is being processed incorrectly once it's playing in YouTube?</p>

Comments.Text: Just some considerations, the reply to your answer itself is a bit more extended and I have not the whole vision to suggest you except of check the profile you are using. But the variables are a lot, consider that this can differ if the video is played as flash player or html5 and also different browsers handles and apply color profiles in a different way. This is true also for images with embedded ICC profile. About the "green" but other colors, well, that green is shifted in a more visible way but i'm pretty sure all the colors get a slight modification.

  I see the correct color on Youtube. via Flash player on Windows 7.
  
  Sounds like either a gamma issue with the errant players, not Youtube. Try VLC.
  
  --or--
  
  Your FCP output isn't properly tagged. Its colorspace is Rec 709 but it's tagged as Rec 601 (or something else).
