1: 4k Youtube content often won't play properly, it seems to depend on the particular channel and how they render it perhaps. This video for example will be super choppy if I try to play it at 4k: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgWuGA8cExo
2: I have 2 4k monitors which support 60hz but If I try to set both of them at 60hz, all hell breaks loose, they flicker and turn on and off and do all sorts of weird stuff. I have to set one at 30hz and other at 50hz, any other combination and I get weird issues.
3: Another issue I have is any time I go from normal view to full screen in Youtube (playing in HD), it does this weird "reset" thing where the video goes black, stops playing, then starts playing again, except it downgrades to lowest res from HD.
Is there a way to fix these issues? I feel something somewhere is not using the hardware and trying to do everything in software maybe. So hoping it's just something I need to enable somewhere. Oh and as my browser I'm using Firefox.
Here is info that should help:
