It sounds like a driver or plug-in is behind the times. That's a major pain in the ass because you have to hunt around for and update each one individually. Good luck.

1) Right click on youtube video.
2) Click Settings
2) I get these tabs: Display, Privacy, Local Storage, Microphone and Camera.
3) Under Display, I UNCHECKED the 'Enable hardware acceleration' tickbox.
4) Refeshed and works fine now.
