    Hello Bill,

    could you please send us an test link so that we could see it ourselves and understand better?

    Have you tried various videos, devices and browsers, or are you experiencing it just on one particular video?

    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hello Bill,

    does the issue occur when the page is loading or when you click to play the video?

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Please check the link https://billhoffman.tv/editing/showography/
    You may also find all the videos before loading the videos there is a white flash across the screen. Specially when I do hard refresh ctrl+shift+R in all browsers.

    Hello Bill,

    I’m not running into the issue with Safari (15.5) nor Chrome (101, it’s actually Brave).

    Only thing which I’m noticing is a write stripe at the top of the screen before the page finishes loading.

    Do you see the issue when using the Performance tool in Chrome? Simply enable the recording in that panel and re-open the page. Then look if you can see the white flash in the screenshots stripe.

    I’m attaching a screenshot to show you what I get – there is no white flash before the video plays.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi,

    It’s not the issue when you run the video, it happens before playing the video. If you refresh ctrl+shift+R before playing any videos, you will see white flash. I have attached here the screenshot.

    Thanks,

    Hello Bill,

    yes, that’s the white stripe which I was referring to. It seems to show before FV Player loads.

    As far as I can tell it seems to show even if FV Player is not there. Could you please replace the FV Player on that page with some text to see if it the white stripe still shows up?

    Thanks,
    Martin
