The HMTL5 player worked just fine before last update, but right after updating now there's a weird stuttering in the sound constantly when using it in e.g. Youtube, I tried safe mode, clearing cache, updating plugins, ect. Nothing helped. Any way to fix this?

Hi L1pE, maybe the Digital Rights Management (DRM) related.....

see how to Disable the Adobe Primetime CDM and see if that is the cause of the issue.


thank you

Hi Ideato, thanks for the response.

I tried disabling the CDM plugin and unchecking the DRM option, restarted and cleared cache and such again, problem still persists.

For now I have decided to roll back to 37.2 and now the problem's gone.
