Youtube Black Screen Problem on Fullscreen : Solution

Youtube has changed the internet video world drastically. Almost all of us use youtube (on firefox, chrome, opera and on internet explorer) to watch our favorite videos, and Enjoyment becomes double when we watch the videos in full-screen.

But some of the people are facing a problem that When they play any youtube video and click on full screen option, it shows a black / blank screen, while the audio and annotations are still playing. And when they return to the normal browser screen, this problem gets resolved and video starts playing along with the music and annotations.

If you do have the same problem then OriginalTips has got a solution for you.

1. Go to www.youtube.com

When I click on Settings, a message box appears asking me to choose whether I will allow someone access to my camera and microphone settings, and mentions nothing of a hardware acceleration option.

Just go to the first icon as shown in the second example picture given in this page.

I got/found your link in one of the “YouTube Help” discussions before posting my own question.Thank you so much you’re a genius!!! I have been trying to figure this problem out for about a week now. I had previously done the same thing that you asked to do here. But didn’t want to click and undo anything, make things worse, and not remember what I did and how to put settings back. Anyway, thanks again for this post!!! You’re the best!

THERE ARE NO “SETTINGS” TO RIGHT CLICK ON THE VIDEO PLAYER, OR ANYWHERE AT ALL!!
PLEASE!!!! NO DAMN SETTINGS!!!!!! HOW THE HELL AM I GONNA GET BACK TO WATCHING VIDS???
