      It would be great to get a patch for VLC where it affects my enjoyment the most. I'll go on dreaming and turning flux off when it gets too distracting.

        I'm having the exact same issues on my 2012 13" Macbook Pro running El Capitan 10.11.4
        Latest version of Flux
        I get Artifacting only when fullscreen (Youtube + VLC).
        The artifacting effects:

        • The Mouse Cursor
        • Areas that have a smooth colour (Walls, Skin, Etc)

        It disappears, and comes back 3 seconds later when:

        • I move the mouse.
        • I adjust volume (the volume icon that pops up).
        • Pausing and Playing the Video again with the Spacebar.

          Hi, I'm own the newest Mac book Pro 13 inch with Touchbar and I'm running 10.12.3 and the latest version of flux.

          I seem to have the same problem of color distortions when streaming from sites like youtube or Netflix.

          My problem also occurs when I'm not in full screen. It occurs both in Safari and Chrome!

          This is what it looks like. So is it flux's fault or a problem with apple?

            Also I haven't noticed the problem when playing a video file with VLC or similar -- just from streaming.
