      I have this problem as well, at least since the summer of 2015 but probably longer. However, closing flux doesn't help me. Tried closing it and rebooting Safari without flux but I still got this problem.

        I found that when I activate (and then deactivate if I want to) another of my extensions I don't get the overlay colour disruptions when I go to full screen. (Limited testing has been done.)
        EDIT: Seems to work ok on youtube, not on netflix.

                It seems it was fixed in the latest (today) update?! At least YouTube is ok at this moment.

                    There seem to be several threads about this so I'll chime in on this one as well. Same problem.

                    MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)
                    Graphics: Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB
                    OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 (15D21)

                    I've just installed the most recent f.lux update (36.6).

                            Same problem, started when I upgraded to El Capitan a couple weeks ago.

                            Macbook Pro Retina (Mid 2012) HD 4000
                            Safari 9.0.3
                            Flux 36.6
                            I hadn't updated my OS until El Capitan, I think it came with Lion. I see from the thread this issue has been longstanding but my old OS did not have this issue, the update to El Capitan is definitely when it started for me.

                              @seajay Oh yeah, that's a great video for demonstrating the issue. Seeing more distortion on this than most other vids.

                                      I've got a Mid-2015 13" Retina running 10.11.3, Flux 36.6 with the Intel Iris 6100 doing this exact issue.

                                      I can reliably reproduce this when running in the default "looks like 1280x800" Retina mode. When I change to the "more space" 1680x1050 mode, the issue goes away (and vice versa) - I guess that's why I haven't noticed it until recently as I usually use the more space mode.

                                        Same problem here on a 2015 MBPr with Intel Iris Pro. The problem goes away when I disable automatic graphics switching and use the Nvidia card.

                                            The f.lux team hasn't replied on this topic in 9 months. Is anybody working on fixing this problem?
