![]() GPU Accelerated Windows: 2/2 Direct3D 9 (OMTC) ID: Īdapter Description: NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GTX+ Multiprocess Windows: 0/2 (default: false) I will add a new reply with a copy and paste of my Troubleshooting information per Chris' instructions. You'll see on right h.264 and mpeg-4 with red X's. I also tested on website and here's copy of the test: Hopefully that explains most what I've experienced, I didn't do any extensive tests in between each version, because honestly as I've said in previous report, it's not a huge issue it is after all just XP and ill be getting rid of it soon when I swap out the motherboard/cpu and such. Then upgrading to 43.0.4 youtube would not load the html5 player at all, and it was sluggish, I was given the manual option to toggle in about:config to force html5 player and that brought the html5 player back to youtube but hd content in the player was not smooth anymore, sluggish, freezing up, as mentioned prior. 43.0.3 seemed to fix the issue with youtube and videos were fine there, although I admit I didn't do any full testing as I was unaware of other problems or if they existed. Video on streaming sites was smooth and no performance issues then after the 43.0.2 all videos on youtube only played at 360p with no option for higher quality, clicking the 'quality missing' sent to a test site stating there was no support and listed supported browsers which Firefox was listed and I filed initial bug. PureVideo HD: VP2, Core: G92, VDPAU feature set: A, further looking up "feature set A" I get info: Supports complete acceleration for H.264 and partial acceleration for MPEG-1, MPEG-2, VC-1/WMV9. My video card in this box is an older evga geforce 9800 gtx+ the "overclocked" plus version. Due to a little security until I can replace the motherboard/cpu/ram and get a small ssd for this XP box I've procrastinated upgrading to linux or win7 as other than when I'm gaming it's not used online and only for internal drive shares on lan. My nexus 7 tablet and main pc plays those just fine. Or I may click a youtube link sent in facebook/email, without having to interrupt game on main pc.Įverything both vp9 and flash played hd content ok no stutter even on this older system, up to 1080p, I never tried the 60fps or higher resolution as that's not expected on this pc. But often when I'm gaming on main pc I'll have a hd twitch stream on the xp box as I occasionally play multiplayer with a couple streamers. The website I noticed a couple months ago mentioning losing hardware acceleration on h264 content was this which also links to a bug report on this site: Now I never had a problem with any video content, youtube/vimeo/dailymotion/twitch as this old xp box is primarily a hard drive packed backup server mainly. You can even on this old XP box grab the vlc player window and drag it all over screen violently and it doesn't cause a stutter. But my VLC player is set to hardware acceleration and plays 1080p h.264 encoded mk4/mp4 smooth as silk. I googled about loss of h.264 hardware acceleration since flash and html5 both couldn't play hd content. I saw that in the troubleshooting information that now it was reporting that h.264 hardware decoding was now showing not supported. The the video would play a couple moments then choke/freeze/stutter. I also went to vimeo/twitch/dailymotion and flashplayer autoload but the hd content struggled to play it did very similar to youtube freezing on html5. Chris gave me a workaround in about:config to force html5 player to load, and it did but it too was choppy, the browser would play a couple seconds and freeze, which would lock everything up, I say that because moving mouse to stop the playback or close tab the mouse cursor froze on screen until the video would play a couple more seconds. I noticed hd content in flash was choppy. ![]() When I upgraded to 43.0.4 I noticed html5 would not load at all on youtube and I had to reinstall flash. For record I do not have hardware acceleration anymore in h.264/flash content.
