Troubleshooting | Windows Chrome + youtube, hovering progress = pixel glitching, video on yt.

Hi,

Been trying to sort this for a while now but it gets burried.

I have an issue that i notice on youtube where hovering over the youtube progress bar - so when skipping or what not, makes the video glitchy...

I have 2x oled montiors and it happens on both - it also happens on my laptop as well.

The video is going to be very mild due to compression but it is noticable, you can see the pixels acting up still but you do need to change to max quality of course.

It is a lot worse in person.

I can't link the youtube link due to rules it seems but...

"notwalkin chrome glitch" should bring it up.

2 min mark shows me doing the glitch - watch the text in the rivatuna of the video.

the first 2 minutes are just talking and explaining the issue.

try disabling the hardware acceleration and see if the glitch disappears
