He said that when the video was played at a low resolution, like 144p and it was not occluded, aliasing/pixelation was observed. But, surprisingly, the effect vanished when the mouse hovered over the screen. A similar sort of issue affected colors. In the lighter colour sections of the video, when the mouse was moved over the screen or the screen was scrolled down, the colour of the video changed. What was reported, is discussed below. How to reproduce the problem This section deals with the problem in the quality and colour of the video and the changes that occurred in the quality and colour of the playback when the mouse was moved over the video. Aliasing: Colour: This was a strange thing observed. It was expected that the video should not be pixelated when not occluded and the video colour should not change when it was not occluded. But the results were opposite to the anticipations and the video quality was dramatically worse when the mouse was not over the video. Whether this problem was with Flash or HTML5? It was with HTML5. This issue was observed in:
Chrome version: 72.0.3626.119 Channel: stable OS Version: 10.0 Flash Version: 32.0.0.142
Reportedly, this issue of video upscaling can be solved by calling SetBitmapInterpolationMode() to change the interpolation mode to linear. It is reported that this bug has been fixed in the stable release of Chrome. But one user reports that he still observes this issue. The upcoming Chrome update will reportedly fix this issue for good. Do you face a similar issue? Why not let us know in the comments below? RELATED STORIES TO CHECK OUT:
