Chrome switches monitors

[lockejaw]

I use 3 monitors and Chrome has started switching monitors on me whenever I leave a full screen videos.  Ive googled it and havent come across any explanations.  This just started today and Im finding it incredibly annoying.  I am not very familar with the systems of chrome

I think he means that whenever he plays a video in full screen, the window jumps to a different screen when the video ends. Like if launched in display 1, when the fullscreen is ended, it jumps to display 3. OP, is that correct?

 

Anyways, thats quite unusual. I can do some digging on my end and see if I can figure something out. No promises...

thats exactly what is happening.  It only jumps from monitor 1 to monitor 2.  I did just find out that it will only do it if I have one set of tabs open on monitor 1.  If I open the video in a second set of tabs it wont do it or if I have a set of tabs open on monitor 2 it wont do it then either.  Like I said this is a new problem as of tonight.  I havent changed anything to my system either so I have no clue where this is coming from other maybe Chrome updated itself

hmmm, perhaps one of your addons/plugins updated automatically and is causing it.

i've had the same issue for a long time. It's very random and doesn't happen that often.

 

Like, I have a youtube video running on my middle monitor, I double click on the video to have it go fullscreen only for it to fullscreen on my right monitor. 

Solution I got, just move the tab back and forth from a monitor to another and fullscreen again. it'll be good
