Hi @PlantainChip

on which platform (os, chrome version, etc.) do you play?

I know this issue if something went wrong with the graphic hardware acceleration.

Hey @PlantainChip,

that sounds indeed weird, usually it shouldn't happen. I am playing with the most recent Chrome version as well.

I would suggest the following for you, because I have a feeling that maybe one of your extensions is not working quite well with the newest update of Chrome together.

Can you try to disable your extensions and then start Stadia in Chrome again and see if the issue still persists? If it doesn't then it's definetely one of your extensions that is causing the issue. You can then turn them on one by one to figure out which one exactly does it.

I've got the same issue. I just recently started having it when I was initially on Edge then switched to Chrome thinking it would solve my issue but yet it persists. I have the most recent version of Chrome with no extensions enabled and continue to get the green flashing screen.

I've already confirmed that my connection is more than capable by testing it through stadia's Help Center which rated my connection at 105.4 Mbps.

Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @Capmandoo,

Did you try a Chrome Incognito Window?
A thing you can also try is install the unofficial Stadia Enhanced plugin and force VP9 to see that helps somehow.
