Running Windows 7, IE 10 and latest Flash version. I cannot watch video as displays at something like 400x size...
by example, I cannot watch the hashtag episode by Kimmel on youtube...
to be more specific, the video on this laptop has never had a problem, but now the video WILL play, but the display is all off showing the video at massive magnification. so weird.
Check the options on Media Player, not Flash.
Start
All Programs
Accessories
System Tools
System restore
Restore to date when it worked.
didn't work...????
weird. So, THIS works fine: http://wapc.mlb.com/play?content_id=...ic_id=11061776 but THIS doesn't: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf3mgmEdfwg, nor does THIS, by example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57dzaMaouXA ugh!!!
Attachment 10333This is a shot of the start of the HASHTAG video by Kimmel. All you can see is the center and the video is way to large...
Have you tried to change the "quality setting" in your player. (little gear thingee) You might have it set at an odd resolution. You could also check the "about Adobe..." and see if your player needs an updating.
hi, and thanks!! Yeah that was one of the first things I tried. It is very perplexing. I am a technophile but just can't noodle this one out. If you go to my Facebook page: Ian MacIvor (there can't be that many of 'me' out there, you will find the video I took of what I am experiencing. Thanks one and all for your assistance. -Ian
P.S. I have posted same questions to the Adobe forum, a Microsoft Media forum, and am getting some traction on Facebook, but still no joy.
Install google chrome
THIS is really weird. When the laptop is on as power, the distortion/ magnification occurs. When on battery, it DOESN'T. ????????
Go into
control panel
power settings
set "AC Power" to match "Battery Power"
While this was a solution for a Mac that I was trying to troubleshoot with the same issue, I had to download realplayer in order to get youtube to work.
Ok, I've farted around with AC settings. No joy. I reset to default- nada. Just sooo weird in my mind. I haven't used Realplayer in about 15 years- didn't know they were even around...
Thanks , I had problem like this and I resolve it .
