Videos/stream/ (youtube netflix etc ...) are not working with POE Windowed Fullscreen

Hi ,

When the game is in Windowed Fullscreen and you try to watch youtube video / discord stream or anything , the video will block / frezze.

This happens only on POE and windowed fullscreen . I don't have any problems on fullscreen.

you already have some forums about this issue like :

I've had my share of frustrations with windowed fullscreen modes in various games, so I can totally relate. First things first, have you tried messing around with hardware acceleration settings in Firefox? Sometimes, turning it off or on can resolve these types of issues.
It's quite strange that it only happens with POE; usually, these issues are either system-wide or browser-specific. Considering you're running a Ryzen 9 5900 and a GTX 1080, your hardware should be more than capable of handling this.
By the way, if you're into streaming services and have ever run into geo-restriction issues, here's a useful guide on How To Watch fuboTV. It offers some good insights into bypassing those annoying limitations, in case you're interested.
