I've tried everything to fix poor picture quality when streaming "third party" videos, e.g., YouTube. Colors are washed out; weird contrast; everything looks like it's coming through a haze. Streams from Netflix, Amazon look normal. And sorry, guys, the same third party streams from YouTube et al. look totally normal in the MS Outlook browser. Have tried all kinds of settings and rebooted as well. No change.
I'm using firefox developer edition and I've similiar problem when streaming vimeo and youtube, the contrast is kinda weird.I set gfx.color_management.native_srgb to true in about:config and it solve my problem, hopefully it will solve your problem too
Historically, I think this could be caused by a custom monitor profile (if you profile your displays). Starting a few years ago, this could be caused by Firefox not handling the saturation properly on high dynamic range (HDR) videos. Are the problems exclusive to YouTube video, photos are not affected? Can you tell whether the problem is related to HDR videos?
Thanks for the suggestion. Thanks for getting back at all! It's appreciated. I tried to find something like a "contrast mode" for Firefox and came up empty. Digging deeper, stumbled into -source-docs.mozilla.org/testing/chrome-tests/index.html
I think you are absolutely correct in your implication that this is a problem within Firefox, not the content provider, my computer or my internet connection, which is high speed cable. And again, it remains a mystery to me how streaming from Netflix or Amazon is perfectly fine, as are all photos stored on my PC, but videos through YouTube or cable news channels are horrible. Fuzzy edges, color all distorted, contrast is crazy high, everything grayed over. It's borderline unwatchable.
If I have not yet mentioned it, everything looks fine in every kind of video download or stream when using MS Edge as my browser. I started using in-office PCs in '89 and have stuck with the software since I knew it, in spite of my antipathy toward Microsoft. Firefox was a trusted friend. It saddens me that the easiest and most logical way around the problem is to make MS Edge my default browser. Maybe Microsoft, one way or another, has sabotaged Foxfire, which really burns my butt.
I think I recently okayed an MS pop-up to install Google Chrome. Could that have done it? I am tempted to uninstall the Google Chrome app to see what happens, but fear things will fall apart and I will lose a bunch of emails or some other unrecoverable disaster. What do you think? Other than that, I guess I am stuck with MS Edge as my browser.Ugh.
Hi,I've a brand new asus zenbook UX305 with windows 10Now I've noticed an issue with firefox's videos in terms of stuttering and lagging. At first it was only on fullscreen but after going into safe mode it's been doing it even on smaller videos. This applies to all my usual streaming sites including youtube. I do not have any of these issues on Microsoft edge but being a long time Firefox user, I have no intentions of switching if I can help it. I've tried disabling hardware accelerating. I've checked for latest drivers. I've got into safe mode and disabled my addons (Only adblocker and noscript)
Does this occur on any specific websites? By stutter, do you mean the video is loading choppily? Sometimes, this can be due to a bandwidth issue.. have you tried pausing the video for a few minutes then going back to it?
No it stutters during playback. Even if the video is 100% loaded. It happens on any streaming site (YouTube.com, arkvid, vidto.me, gorillavid.in, etc.) VLC 1080p videos in the regular player work fine. I checked Chrome and that also works just fine. No issues in playback. It loads properly Andrew but the playback is choppy and it sometimes loops small fragments over. So after about 2 minutes the audio is obviously desynced from the video.
I have tried that as well. As I mentioned in my original post, I tried disabling hardware acceleration, running safe mode, and even gone though to disable hardware acceleration specifically for flash.I have updated all drivers. I checked updates on plugins etc as well.
Thanks for your time Andrew. I will go through individual settings per the links you suggested and see how that goes. A quick glossover indicates I have tried most of these after reading other posts with complaints of similar issues but I shall give them all a try once more and see if there's anything I have by chance missed.
Same problem here. Since the last few days there is a 1px white line on the top of netflix fullscreen videos. Can't reproduce it on other websites. Did a full reset of firefox, no change.
Sometimes I'm able to make it a darker blue-grey shade which is way more tolerable than the white bar and I wonder if that was why, as I've had trouble recreating it. Will give that a go though, thanks.
Hi guys. The Microsoft Edge is my favorite browser of all times, really, but not when I try to watch netflix or other video streaming services, it always breaks, I have no ideia what to do anymore. Always when I try to play something there's an error and then I need to reload over and over again, sometimes even when I just play the video it stop working when I try to play again. Help me to keep using this best browser that I've ever seen.
I've ever tried to disable hardware acceleration, enable DRM content, install Microsoft Silverlight and a lot of other things, but I didn't get to watch so far without an error I keep receiving these error codes: D7356-7701 and others related. Is there's still something that can be done to really fix theses erros or I just have to be patient and wait for news versions of the browser?
Most recently, many Netflix users are finding themselves faced with a black screen while sound still streams. The Netflix interface in the app or browser works, and they're able to browse through the catalog as usual. But when they attempt to stream the desired TV show or movie the Netflix player shows up with no video, even though the soundtrack plays as normal. It's a frustrating glitch to have interrupt your Netflix & Chill time, but the good news is that, if the streaming service has been demonstrating such tantrums, there are a few easy solutions that can help fix it.
If there's no outage, the next step is to check your internet connection. The steps to troubleshoot that vary depending upon whether you're streaming content through a Wi-Fi or a cellular connection. Users on a Wi-Fi network should try rebooting the router and reconnecting the device to the network. Those on a cellular connection can try enabling and disabling the airplane mode. If the connection is working, running a speed test shows the available bandwidth: Netflix requires a minimum download speed of 1 Mbps. Assuming everything looks fine, try streaming Netflix again.
If that doesn't help, Android users can try clearing the app data. To do so, head over to Settings > Apps > Netflix > Storage > Clear Data. Both Android and iOS users can try reinstalling the application, which should download new files from the respective app stores, and in the process restore any resource files that might be corrupted (via Netflix). Finally, if Netflix still doesn't show any sign of improvement, try rebooting the smartphone. If the problem persists after that, you can report the issue to Netflix.
The second thing that users can do is clear the web browser's cache. In Chrome, open Settings and search for 'cache.' The results should show an option that reads 'Clear Browsing data.' A dialogue box with the option 'clear data' will open upon selecting. Click on it to clear any cached data and try streaming Netflix again. For those who use Mozilla Firefox, open 'Privacy & Setting,' click on 'Cookies and Site Data' and click on 'Clear Data' to clear the cache.
If you're streaming Netflix on Mac, clearing the cache is equally easy. First, click on the 'Safari' tab at the top left corner and then click on 'Preferences.' In the menu, select 'Advanced' and mark the box beside 'Show Develop menu in menu bar' at the bottom. Following this, a 'Develop' tab will appear on the screen. Click on the tab and select 'Empty Caches'; that will clear the temporary data saved by the browser. Doing so should fix the Netflix black screen error with sound on Mac. If the web browser is still not able to access content on Netflix, you can try streaming via another web browser, such as Google Chrome.
For those who use Microsoft Edge, finally, click the three-dot icon at the top right corner of the display and select 'Settings.' Select 'Privacy, search, and services' from the menu on the left, and scroll down to locate the section about browsing data, which contains 'Choose what to clear.' Click on the option and mark the boxes beside 'Cookies and other site data' and 'Cached images and files.' This should delete any temporary files that might be causing the browser to malfunction and fix the Netflix streaming error; if not, the next step is reporting the issue to Netflix.
Digital rights management (or DRM) is a technology that Netflix and other streaming services use to protect their shows against piracy. DRM is designed to make it harder for people to record Netflix shows using screen-capture software.
But simply installing Edge will not upgrade your hardware and software. If you plan on watching Netflix in 4K, you need a powerful processor, Windows 10 1607 or newer, a steady internet connection, and a display capable of playing 4K content.
Switching to Edge or Safari for better resolution is just one of the tricks that will improve your viewing experience. If you want to make the most out of your subscription, there are several Netflix hacks that you could try.
