Good Morning Fellow Archers,
My HTML5 videos tear under both Chromium and Firefox. I am using NVidia driver 364.19, although the screen tearing is NOT unique to this driver version.
My Arch is up to date. Graphics card is a NVidia GTX-660. Arch is x64. 32 Gb of ram. 4.0 Ghz AMD Piledriver on a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3 motherboard, with DDR3 Ram running at 1600.
When playing back flash based videos under Chromium's pepper flash (installed from the AUR), videos playback perfectly. Whan watching a DVD or BluRay ripped video under either VLC or mplayer, playback is perfect.
The issue seems to be specific to HTML5 videos. When I dual-boot to windows, I get no such screen tearing on the same videos, so I know it's not the video feed from the source. It's something specific to my system, or an issue with the HTML5 engines in these browsers.
Does anyone have any idea what I should begin to do to track this issue down and fix?
Thanks!
Sincerely and respectfully,
Dave

Hello Dave,
have you enabled hardware acceleration in chromium/firefox? It should help.
Else i have no idea what could cause the issue you are experiencing.

Forgive me for not mentioning this in my original post. I see no difference with hardware acceleration turned on, or off......

Update:
Since Firefox reached release 46, it no longer has the problem. Now, it is only Chromium that is having the problem, Firefox no longer tears the screen when playing back HTML5 videos.
