MicrosoftDev channel update to 77.0.230.2 is live
Twitter / Instagram Story video fix:
- edge:flags
- Enable the use of SurfaceLayer objects for videos. -> Disabled
(This does NOT break PiP support for YouTube)
- I'm seeing Reddit video problems too. Gfycat videos do not play well within reddit site, but same video works fine at gfycat site. Also noticed that if I make my Edge browser window real narrow then the video plays fine.

I enabled the SurfaceLayer flag but all I get with a narrow window is that the bottom-right corner of an animated gif in Twitter goes at the correct pace but the rest of the video doesn't!
Toff-kun this fixed Reddit media playback, but not Twitch streams. Very stuttery.
An update to the video playback issue:
I'm running one 144hz and one 60hz monitor. Twitch streams work perfectly fine on the 144hz monitor, but break (very choppy playback) when I move the window over to the 60hz monitor (all default flags). This does not affect Reddit media playback (broken on either monitor, as in some parts of the image don't refresh for several seconds).
igotinfected So that's weird. Twitch videos are streaming smoothly on both my 120 Hz & 60 Hz monitors--without changing any flags.
But changing that flag definitely fixed Twitter videos.
I wonder what's up with Twitch...
- Does not fix the problem on my SB2. It does marginally improve it but still has lots of dropped frames and tearing.
