GH13 What's going on with my images? (GH17)

I went out and shot some interviews today, and going through my images I'm finding some really harsh stuff going on with my footage as I look at it now. I shot in MJPEG for two or three minutes before switching over to AVCHD. It appears as though my AVC files aren't having this problem with the "selective colour" as the MJPEG files. The problem is, most of my snaps also from today have this problem. Attached is a still of the footage, and some of my photos.

This is all done with a hacked GH1, using Lpowells supposed native 24p mode (for whatever reason, it didn't record 24p and instead recorded 30p)

What I'm talking about is that darker band on the right side of the image. My intention was for the footage to be much more colourful than what you see on the right side of the image (pretty much the whole image but that banding on the side). If anything, the colour on that little band on the left right side is what my image should look like.
 
Alright, I've come to the conclusion that this banding is due to either write errors, or something to do with the hack. I had installed one of the latest "Native 24p patches" from here, but I formatted my card in-camera last night before my shoot and came home to log my footage and found all my footage is shot at 29,70fps (or something quite close) and not 24p at all.
Just as well the job I was shooting today was to be delivered web-only, otherwise I'd have been completely and utterly stuffed.

I'm going to re-patch my camera again tomorrow morning and do some test shooting... just to verify if my theory is correct. In the meantime, if anyone else could express their possible theories or even properly inform me as to what exactly is going on here... I'd appreciate it.

I also appologize for my first post being jumbled and hard-to-understand.
