More HTML5 audio fixes – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.15.1147.23

"switching tabs by scolling" doesnt works anymore. -.-
-
@wudini Are you referring to scrollwheel over the tabs, or RMB Tab Cycling? Both are working fine for me.
Specs: AMD A10-6800K, 8 Gb on Win 10 64-bit •Snapshot 1.15.1147.23 (64-bit)

@ian-coog But that means that something is broken with the buffering, I guess. Seems like it's interrupting/ disturbing video playback. And hardware acceleration should cause less CPU usage while rendering website content and the browser UI. It's pretty weird that video playback works better with hardware acceleration turned off. It should work the other way.
My internet connection speed is 100 MBit/s down and 2 MBit/s up. I think that's fast enough too for buffering at least 1080p@60 videos.

of course, I am well aware about that, there's nothing better I can do about it than disabling HW decode for now and wait for better times.

@wudini Both scroll methods work correctly here [albeit mostly i change tabs via mouse gestures].

Just tried this version 1.15.1147.23 (Official Build) (64-bit)on win10 x64 1709, and Netflix works fine.
I had some trouble with the previous versions on Netflix and win10. -
Same problem here since the last snapshot - I have not experienced before.

@steffie 24 hours after the 5 hrs, & still not broken yet.
Woohoo...?

@halleandert do you confirm this problem https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/25535/4k-youtube-videos-not-buffering/1 ?

infact they just play fine with HW decode off, and the full file gets loaded completely way before being played to the end.
I disable HW decoding and animations and still got problem with buffering https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/197435

@gregor: no, I can't confirm this problem on my system. All videos are playing fine until it's max. 30fps. Only video playback with @60fps videos is lagging.
I found out that Google Chrome (avg. 35% at 4K@60) uses more GPU usage than Vivaldi (avg. 13% at 4K@60) while playing videos on YouTube. Seems like Chrome is "more" hardware accelerated (GPU) than Vivaldi.
Firefox has the best hardware acceleration with much less CPU usage (~ 30% compared to Chrome and Vivaldi with ~60 - 80%) and a lot more GPU usage (avg. 50% at 4K@60).

@ayespy Try that in Win10. Make Vivaldi maximized, correctly, so no window border is vissible and you have correct icon . Then, drag maximized window from from top of window, just few pixels 10-20 down and return cursor back at top (do not release the click), so the window get maximized again, because of Aero Snap. On my Win10 the window is placed ~20pixels underneath the top of screen. If I do the movement again, the window is placed correctly to the top of screen. Then do it again and window is placed again ~20 pixels down.
I'm at work now so cannot make you a screen how it looks exactly.

Sometime round .19 or .21 update deezer.com stopped working for me. Keeps asking for flash install (which does not help), while it probably should use html5 audio?

@gwen-dragon: Thanks for pointing this one out, workaround helped! However I am sure it did work for me last week, so this seems to be a recent change (or cached old version?)
