Someone please help before i'm committed to a mental institute. The issue i'm having is when i'm watching a 1080p video online (e.g. YouTube) on full screen, I see what i can only describe as micro stuttering. As an example check out the Jurassic World official trailer and the part when the camera pans over the water and there's a rail bridge, its the scene right before the giant Dino jumps up and eats the shark.  On this scene and almost any scene than pans across a landscape I see this micro stuttering. Anyone else in the room thinks i'm crazy. But when I say watch a 1080p video on VLC player (when the video fie is stored on my HDD the video plays as smooth as butter.

 

 

My Setup:

Operating System - Windows 7 64bit

Memory - 8GB

Storage - 128GB SDD (Boot) and 2TB HDD

Graphics Card - NVidia GeForce GT 630

Processor - AMD Phenom II X4 850 (3.3GHz)

Browser - Chrome Beta

Monitor - 40" LG LED TV - 1920x1080p @ 60Hz

 

What i've tried thus far...

1. Tried normal chrome, Firefox and yes IE. only one that improved the performance was IE @ 720p on YouTube. But I really don't wanna use IE.

 

2. All drivers are upto date.

 

3. Tried every solution about fixing that I found on Youtube, including....reverting from HTML5 to Flash, disabling pepflashplayer, enabling and this disabling hardware acceleration.

 

4.  Updated software on TV.  TV is set to PC mode (ive also disabled PC mode), i've also played around with resolutions and refresh rates and the only one that i can use without it looking awful is the native resolution of 1920x1080 @60hz, every other setting looks really bad.

 

5.  I updated graphics card from a geforce 315m to the gefore GT 630 (from a friend), I also had to upgrade power supply and case to accommodate this.

 

6.  I have to use a TV as a monitor (long story) but the gist is that i have my PC, Sky box and Xbox One all plugged into it and sit right in front of it, so having a TV and then a separate monitor would involve moving PC to a different place and i couldn't use all from the one location.

 

 

I really am at a loss of what to do, I though it might be because i'm using a TV instead of a dedicated monitor but locally stored videos play much better, I wont say 100% smooth because at this point i'm not sure if my brain is just seeing stuttering everywhere or not just because i'm looking soo hard to see it.

 

Just let me know if you need any more info.

 

Sorry for long post.

 

Many Thanks, Dunk.

Thanks for reply Master Diaster, the link says i'm on HTML5 but i have tried going back to flash player (followed a guide on youtube) alas no improvement.

 

Thanks

Something probably wrong with flash, try uninstalling it and reinstalling it and clear the browser's data along.
