Members have been encountering an issue with stream quality degradation, specifically a green flickering effect, across various streaming platforms. The problem seems pronounced when using external webcams, including models like the Logitech 920e, with Acer Nitro5 laptops equipped with NVIDIA GTX1650 graphics cards. Despite updates to the latest Nvidia drivers, the issue persists. The built-in camera does not exhibit the same problem, suggesting a potential compatibility or hardware acceleration issue.
- Initial troubleshooting steps like updating or rolling back Nvidia drivers, and testing with different cameras or using phones as webcams, have not resolved the issue.
- Direct streaming without third-party software (e.g., OBS or splitters) was suggested to identify whether these applications might be contributing to the problem.
- Disabling hardware acceleration in both the streaming application and Chrome has been flagged as a potential workaround, hinting at a broader issue with the Acer Nitro series and hardware acceleration.
This summary reflects ongoing discussions and shared experiences regarding specific technical difficulties. Members are encouraged to experiment with suggested solutions, such as disabling hardware acceleration and testing streams without third-party software, and to share any findings or additional solutions that may help resolve the green flickering issue.
