Ever since a recent NVIDIA drivers update, specifically version 375.86, any video I watch over the interwebs looks all (edit) up but occasionally fixes itself after 30 seconds into the video. To give you an example, looks like this: https://gyazo.com/bb6608a26d8642fc98ccc84ac8e7db8b

This has been a re-occurring issue within the last few NVIDIA drivers updates, and newer updates don't seem to be fixing the problem. Anyone have any advice on how to fix this? I've reinstalled my drivers and rolled back to older versions. I have noticed quite a few people have been having this issue too.

Watch your language. This is a family friendly forum!

Yep, I've been having this issue too, I also believe it's the nvidia driver. Turn off hardware acceleration in Chrome and it should solve the problem with minimal effect on your browsing experience.

I haven't turned it back on since I got the new driver yesterday but from your post, it sounds like it hasn't fixed the problem.
Strangely enough I have had that issue, but it seems to have gone away on it's own. I think it started and ended while I was using 375.70 on my gtx 970. The problem was in Chrome for me and the only thing I think I did was clicking on settings on the top right going to "help" and "about google chrome" and it updated and told me to restart. I'm not sure if that is the moment it stopped, but I really can't think of anything else I did.

Forgot to get back to you on this one, that worked for me, turning off hardware acceleration. Thanks for heads up.
