colors - Red and blue are swapped on Youtube


Since Sunday (April 1st), red and blue are sometimes swapped when I watch videos on YouTube.


Examples are "Peeling Apple Like A Boss" (blue arms and apple) or, to my dismay, the famous Red vs. Blue series (like this video) which sucks.


Here is a screenshot of the RvB episode at 1:28.


Vimeo is OK, other web video services are OK, only most YouTube videos are affected ... well, all that I could find so far.


This video looks OK in Firefox but it's broken in Chrome. The episode of RvB looks wrong in both browsers. Local videos look file.


What could be causing this?


[EDIT] Versions:


openSUSE 12.1
NVIDIA 295.33
Firefox 11.0
Chromium 17.0.922.0
Flash 11.0.1.152



Answer



This could have to do with hardware acceleration.


If you are using Flash:




  1. Right click on the video, go to Settings and in the first tab toggle the acceleration checkmark.




  2. Go to http://www.youtube.com/testtube and enable HTML5.




If you are using HTML5:




  1. Go to http://www.youtube.com/testtube and disable HTML5.




  2. Right click on the Flash video, go to Settings and in the first tab toggle the acceleration checkmark.
