Screen share preview has a blur filter applied

Somehow at some point in the UI of TS6 a blur filter is applied and end up where it should not, on the video element of streams.

Making stream ugly and blurry.

Doing a right click does fix it until the context menu is closed :
Blurry

the proof that it’s a TS6 issue is that if I overwrite the css filter the on the video element it does fix it : filter: blur(0px);

You may want to look at the imgs in fullscreen to see the difference

I have been experiencing this issue since day one:

Thanks for the report. We didn’t have this issue on our radar at all - no one internally and in our alpha testing team is/was experiencing this concrete issue, and your original report didn’t exactly pin anything concretly down to the UI rendering path or encoder settings.

Best bet: Chromium quirk when not landing perfectly on the pixel grid (of your monitor, not inside the app), and using GPU layouting (which we should do for the streams)

It should behave better in the next beta. Let me know if beta4 fixes this for you.

Regarding this part of your post:


This is kind of expected when multiple issues are grouped into a single post. You’ve mentioned several different problems, and it becomes difficult to track or address them all in one thread.

Also, saying that something “hasn’t been fixed for months” without clearly outlining the specific issue or how to reproduce it is in my opinion a bit disrespectful.

This topic clearly follows all of the previous mentions needs to properly handle bug reports. So thanks from my side as well.

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to be disrespectful.

I thought it was the case for everyone (which isn’t, I now know thanks to revide’s post).

It’s just that, for me, the stream being blurry was the first thing I noticed when I launched the first TS6 beta, and it was so obvious there was a problem that I was a little thrown off to see it persist.

I’ve edited the original post to remove my comment about this.
Please accept my apologies if anyone was offended by my post.
