Fullscreen youtube colour artefacting.

Thanks all - we've reported the bug to the right people and they're trying to repro now.

@lorna any updates to this issue?

Also experiencing this issue with Intel Graphics at all resolutions on Retina MBP. Looks like you filed your bug report 3 weeks ago. Any promising leads?

No updates yet, I wish I had better news, I know this is frustrating.

I was just watching a video in full screen on Netflix (using Safari) where pure whites become blue as soon as the playback controls disappear. I have the same problem in Quicktime (which has prompted me to stop using it) but not in VLC.

When I turned off f.lux, the issue disappeared. The thing is, I don't experience the problem until f.lux reaches a certain "temperature".

I'm using an early 2015 13" MacBook Pro (Intel Iris Graphics 6100) with Flux 36.3. The most recent example is in Safari 9 in OS X 10.11 El Capitan.

Just checking in with the same problem I'm afraid. Understand you are working on a fix.

OSX 10.10.5 Yosemite
Safari 8.0.8
f.lux 36.3

Thanks!

I've been having this problem since I've had this laptop as well. Same symptoms as everybody else-only fullscreen, doesn't happen when hud is visible, safari but not chrome.

I wonder if it's a quicktime thing--this issue happens in standalone quicktime as well, but not other programs like vlc or mplayerx, and also only in fullscreen and when the hud is not visible.

Would like to give a heads-up and also looking forward to hear an update (especially back from Intel!). Just noticed this bug a few days ago. Exactly the same experience as above. Reproducible with white videos on Safari, but not on Chrome.

Macbook Pro mid 2014
OS X 10.10.5
Safari 9.0
Flux 36.3

Same problem here.

When playing fullscreen video in iTunes I can make the artefacts disappear by moving the cursor, this will make the video controls appear (still fullscreen), when I stop moving the cursor, as soon as the video controls disappear the artefacts are back.

@lorna It's been two months now since you guys reported this issue. Any kind of update yet? It's not just youtube. It's all fullscreen video.

Nirvanes

Made this post some days ago https://justgetflux.com/forum/topic/416/f-lux-glitching-youtube-in-safari ,didn't found the current post earlier.

Been experiencing it since OSX 10.11 too.

Just with Safari, Chrome works fine.

Nirvanes

Happened with Netflix too last night. :( Please fix this.

episer

Seems it has been fixed since the new update. Thank you!

analogtones

The update doesn't seem to have fixed the problem for me. Just tested fullscreen quicktime and fullscreen Netflix in Safari after updating to 36.5. Restarted my computer in hopes it would work, but no luck yet.

I have the same issue. The pixelated maxed-out bright spots occur only in fullscreen videos in Safari with no HUD. Evidence here.

MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012)
Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB
OS X El Capitan 10.11.1
Safari 9.0.1
f.lux 36.5

No fix with the newest version.
As an addition the problem appears with videos on Kickstarter too.

Same issue here:

MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015)
Intel HD Graphics 5300
OS X El Capitan 10.11.1
Safari 9.0.1
f.lux 36.5

PS: Specifically, exactly as Logica Ens above described it, i.e.: "The pixelated maxed-out bright spots occur only in fullscreen videos in Safari with no HUD."

Same issue as above.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
OS X El Capital 10.11.1 (15B42)
Graphics Intel Iris 1536 MB
Happens in Safari Version 9.0.1 (11601.2.7.2)
f.lux 36.5

Happens in fullscreen videos at bright spots. If I wiggle the mouse and the youtube overlay reappears, the problem then disappears. (So the HUD rendering fixes it)

Michael Fisher

As countless others have said, the bright spots appear only in Safari fullscreen with no HUD rendered. I use Safari's default video player and it happens in that.

MacBook Pro Retina (13 inch, Early 2015)
OS X El Capitan 10.11.1
Intel Iris Graphics 6100
Using Safari 9.0.1 and f.lux 36.5

The artefacting happens only when the scaled resolution setting is enabled in System Preferences (the thing that makes the menus etc smaller/bigger)

Logica Ens

@Michael-Fisher The artefacting happens when the default for display resolution setting is enabled in System Preferences too.
