New issue 456461 by mustafae...@gmail.com: Hardware Acceleration not
working anymore even when forced - Intel GMA 3150

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like
Gecko) Chrome/40.0.2214.111 Safari/537.36

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open any page with HTML5 or Flash video on it
2.
3.

What is the expected behavior?
Video is displayed smooth and properly.

What went wrong?
Video is played pixlated with jagged lines and skips a lot of frames.

With a clean cache, YouTube videos are displayed correctly like before but
after clicking on re-size or full-screen button, they get pixlated and even
after re-sizing again, going back to small view or refreshing the page it
doesn't fix!

This wasn't the case before Chrome 40. Prior to this version it would fix
by turning on the "Override software rendering list" and "Disable 3D
software rasterizer" flags, but now even turning these on won't fix the
issue.

I've tried Chrome re-installations, Windows re-installation, trying on
Windows 10 and 8.1, Creating new profiles with no extensions, driver
re-installation, plugin disabling-enabling, Forcing Flash or HTML5 player
on YouTube, resetting flags none works!

I don't face this issue on Comodo Chromium 36 or Pale Moon or IE 11, only
on Chrome 40 (also tried Canary 41 and it also has this issue).

Attached Files are in order:
1. Before clicking on re-size or full-screen (with cache cleared)
2. After clicking on re-size button for larger player
3. After going full-screen
4. Comodo Chroumium, after clicking on re-size

Did this work before? Yes Before Chrome 40.

Is it a problem with Flash or HTML5? Both

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

I guess it used to say Driver Signed on this page before Chrome 40, The
driver is downloaded through Microsoft Update and is the newest, I also
tried the Driver setup from Intel but it didn't fix this issue.

not working anymore even when forced - Intel GMA 3150
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=456461

I had installed an extension which forced AVC stream on my previous
comment, here's another one incognito without extensions using VP9 but
still I'm experiencing issues and as you can see a lot of skipped/dropped
frames.

@tkonch...@chromium.org, I tested again with cache cleared, extensions
disabled and then uninstalled Chrome v40 and installed Version 39 and
tested again even without changing the HW Acceleration force flags set.
Please pay attention to edges and dropped frames stats.The screenshots are
attached.

I read somewhere on your forums that Chrome requires at least OpenGL 2.1
support to run properly, the latest drivers for Intel GMA 3150 are released
back in 2010 support only up to OpenGL 1.4 but still I had less issues on
Chrome 39 and earlier versions.

Screenshots in order:

1. Fullscreen view on Chrome 40.0.2214.115
2. Fullscreen with stats on v40.0.2214.115
3. Chrome 40 version info
4. Fullscreen view on Chrome 39.0.2171.65
5. Fullscreen view with stats on v39.0.2171.65
6. Chrome 39 version info

yini...@, I launched the latest stable version of Chrome 41.0.2272.76 with
the command you provided but it didn't fix any of issues,
although "disable_d3d11" was already in Driver Bug Workarounds list on GPU
page.

As a side note, Chrome 41 on a fresh install with default settings will not
use hardware acceleration at all with an error that says "GPU process was
unable to boot: GPU process launch failed."!! I have attached the GPU info
screen as a PDF. Even turning on the flags won't change the Status message
to "Hardware Accelerated".
