Dual Screen Issue

Hey guy not to sure if this is the right place for this but.

Ive got two screens side by side and on one screen il have a youtube video open and on the other ill play games, the problem is that as soon as i play a game on the one screen the you tube video keeps stopping. The audio is fine but the video only changes say every 1-2 seconds. Any ideas ? or is this just a normal thing.

 

I think this depends on what game. Some dx11 games do this, some dont and dx9 games shouldn't.

 

hmm , its guild wars 2 im playing. Also it does it with twitch too the videos on there stutter too.

 

Probably related to flash acceleration. I have the same issue with Steam videos. When I try to watch a trailer with the window active, it works fine, but as soon as i activate anything else, even just put focus on the desktop instead of the steam window, it starts to stutter.

 

turns out its a windows 8 thing , if i set compatibility to windows 7 it runs smooth.
