    Problems watching Youtube

    I do not know what is the problem but my Youtube or any online video player atm has an issue where a green screen is the only thing that shows. Sometimes when I open the video into full screen I am able to watch it but aside from that, unsure of other things I can do. I do get the green screen on full screen at times too

    Right click the video -> Settings -> Check (or uncheck) Enable Hardware Acceleration and then refresh the page. Seems you don't need it for YouTube but you do need it for the other "tubes" ;p. But that's just my experience.
