    In my case videos were "ghosting", like old 80's tv shows, sometimes videos went black/white in some places, sometimes there was a 3D effect (with red and cyan, not really green/purple). I've spent a good hour reversing my OC, installing new drivers, updating old ones and so on, and this, this simple thing helped. Thanks, dude! :D

    For who wants step by step:
    -Search: about:flags
    -Press Ctrl+F to open the search box and type in: accelerated video
    (Accelerated has to have double c by the way)
    -Press "Disable"
    -Press "Relaunch Now" on the bottom.
    Thats it, your chrome should shut down and u just have to re-open it.
    BTW: Thanks man, great video and solved my problem ! +1 for sure !

    FOR FIREFOX USERS:
    1. In the menu items Click on Tools > Options > General
    2. Scroll down until you find the "Performance" section, uncheck "Use recommended Performance Settings"
    3. Uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available".

    Been having this issue on my phone lately, only started about 6 months ago or so. Whenever I would view RUclips videos (only happened with RUclips) in the chrome browser I'd get hundreds of little bars with that same color scheme covering the entire video player so you couldn't see the video. I thought it was some dumb trick RUclips had implemented to force people to use the app.... It was starting to get really irritating whenever a link would open in the browser, and wouldn't switch over to the app.. This completely fixed it tho, thanks so much!

    how to fix the better way and faster way:
    change your screen resolution
    tutorial for windows 10:
    right click at your desktop
    then click display settings
    scroll down until you see "Display Resolution"
    then change it to whatever screen res you want, if you use like 1920 x 1080 then you can change it to like 2560 x 1440
