so whenever i play song on spotify the short video on loop that plays along with the song (canvas), it seems that the video is of low resolution. i have never faced this issue with edge and chrome, but it happen in firefox too. i tried disabling both shield and ‘use graphics acceleration when available’ , it didnt work.
Worth the read, in case something might apply:
May interest:
brave://flags
Some Brave Browser users search there, for:
- ANGLE
- D3D11
- Metal
- NVIDIA
- OpenGL
- WebGL
and Disable or Enable as they see fit.
A general discussion, including a tip re Brave Shields:
“https://www.ghacks.net/2022/01/31/your-devices-gpu-may-be-used-for-fingerprinting-purposes/”
Scrolling down to one of the comments, the following (by “Iron Heart” Feb. 1, 2022):
“Brave randomizes WebGL when set to ‘Standard’ and turns it off entirely when set to ‘Aggressive’”
There is a somewhat related piece of info at that link, regarding ANGLE GRAPHICS:
Optimizing GPU
thanks but none of them helped… i tried all of those mentioned tips including switching to a diff profile and using spotify in private tab.
Well, you deserve a medal for surviving something that I try to avoid.
I have little if any talent for audio video (and graphics); other than, where the volume control is (which, used to be the Big Knob on the front of the Hi-Fi).
@ky0k0ji What OS are you using when you see this? Would it be possible to share a short recording of the behavior?
@ky0k0ji hmmm that’s strange. What I’m seeing on my end is that some of these canvas loops do have a lower quality but not all of them. As I understand it, this is actually due to the artist (or whoever represents them) not uploading the sample at a high enough bit rate, given how intensely Spotify compresses these canvas loops.
However, you’re correct – even when viewing the same canvas video Brave appears to output much lower quality than Chrome or Edge. Going to do a little digging on this and get back to you.
