Finally they fix it with new chromium )

This fix is implemented on top of tree and has been merged back to Chrome M70 branch.

So you will get this fix when Chrome is M70 or newer.

@s390g2 not only ati HD 4000. Other old mobile ATI series also affected

@athlonite the same drivers for Win 10 and Win 7 behave differently. And again, I was discussing the issue below (see link) so chromium support confirmed that this is chromium issue

@burnout426 said in Hardware acceleration breaks video on a page:

@ultramax See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=800950#c46 if you haven't.

Already there

And I have just downloaded drivers for Win 8 x64 - installed from AMD
The same version like it used to be when it was installed by Windows update, the same issue like it used to be

@athlonite said in Hardware acceleration breaks video on a page:

Never use drivers for GPU, Audio or Network card from Microsoft they somehow manage to screw them up go here>>>

download and install this driver and see if it make any difference

There is no AMD Mobility Radeon 3400 driver for Win 10 from AMD exists. Do you suggest installing smth from either Win 7 or Win 8?

@burnout426 this is my comment, #41
I already modified my shortcut that starts the browser. Yes, it helps... but... I'd like to see it's good without any modification, like it works in Win 7

Seems like it's a Chromium issue. Found other people with the same problems
Raised it here, we will see if it can be fixed

So - just FYI (as they say)
I spent couple of days trying different versions of windows to see what will be happening with the latest version of Opera and this is what I found
Win 7 (either 32 or 64 bit) - no problems with Hardware Acceleration
Win 10 (either 32 or 64 bit) - Hardware Acceleration does not work in Opera

So this is probably something related to Win 10 driver (for all cases I was using automatically installed drivers from Windows Update). This makes me guess: What are my next steps: roll back to Win 7 or try to find a driver for Win 10 to make it work correctly. Maybe install Win 7 driver..

Am I correct?

PS But anyway - FireFox with Hardware acceleration works well (and IE with Hardware acceleration also works well). Maybe smth wrong with chromium engine? Does it make sense to ask someone from opera tech support?

@athlonite Several months ago all was working correctly. The same sites, the same system
I wonder what type of the embedded video is it as I tried Live Unintu 18.04 - neither firefox nor opera can play it. I just see spinning circle and that's all

UPD just tried to enable hardware acceleration in FireFox - also shows OK without any issues
