In the past few days I noticed that if I click off a tab and click back to the youtube tab the video stays frozen for several seconds (audio still playing) and then it jumps to the current position.

 

For some reason it takes it a while to realize that it's not in the background anymore and it needs to start playing the video again.

 

Not sure if it's youtube or chrome, but it only started happening a few days ago.

Not getting this.
Video and Audio still play fine during the transition to fullscreen on my side.

I do get this though(but not always, seems random). I'm guessing it's just the tab hibernating or something?

so ive found out one really strange thing:

when i change the hardware acceleration setting in chrome and click "restart" it fixes my problem for a few minutes. But its really weird that it doesnt depend on if hardware acclereation is on or off i just need to change it, like wtf??
