Speaking about video issues. I finished watching Medaka Box episode 2 and Saki Side-A episode 1 and noticed that the "720p" stream was worse than usual - looked really aliased and seemed like it wasn't 720p unless they somehow fucked up the encoding or given bad raws.

1080p was fine though so it can't be bad raws.

About two weeks ago, lines started looking blocky/pixelated (it might be the whole video, but its the lines/outlines where I'm noticing it). I've been watching it using Chrome, so I guess I should try Firefox (which is what I use for normal browsing and just about everything else) to see if the same issue crops up, to see if maybe its a Chrome issue. Other than that, the only thing I can think of that could have possibly changed and caused the problem was upgrading Flash, in a futile hope that maybe THIS time it would actually realize it was up to date and stop bugging me with the "You need to update" notice every day.

Weird. Hopefully that gets sorted out. I'd rather not watch another season of that on TAN after being teased like that. If there is another announcement, I'd love for it to be Hyouka or Eureka Seven AO, but I'm not getting my hopes out.

Sounds like the same issue I've just run into. Do you get the issue with the 720p stream when full-screen? Even the subtitles look very jagged and aliased along with lines and edges. No problems with 1080p though, but I find watching a CR stream in 1080 extremely silly.

This seems like a problem for recent episodes. I just double-checked an old episode of Moretsu Space Pirates (episode 6) and no PQ problems with the 720p stream full-screen.

Yep, same issue (it also cuts off the tops of the numbers for the timestamp) but I was starting off in 1080p. 720p had the same problem, just a lot worse.

But... this is odd. Switching to 720p was the first thing I tried back when it first happened. But now, I switched to 720p just to try it again, then switched back to 1080p. And that fixed it. But only temporarily. I paused and un-fullscreened it to type this and then when I went back, the problem returned. And I can't fix it again.

WTF.

But I'm glad to see I'm not the only one, I guess.

Keep that in mind. There are some other stuff too, maybe tonight I can watch and figure out what is actually relevant.

Alright, you can find a list of what is necessary here.

Supposedly Flash 11.2 broke something with fullscreen mode - CR Forum

::shrugs:: Still doesn't explain why older videos (just a few weeks old) playback fine.
