When connecting remotely, browser video players might appear as black with no video and no sound. All controls remain visible but the timeline shows only black video. Attempts with tools like Parsec didn’t help. Opening OBS and selecting the browser screen can reproduce this issue. It seems a browser-specific problem could be involved—possibly due to shared codecs or settings used by remote logins. Checking for browser extensions or disabled features might resolve it.

It might be due to a constraint or unusual behavior when linking to your remote PC. The browser video works perfectly via RDP every time I've tried.

FIXED IT! I just had to disable hardware acceleration for Chrome and everything's just the way it's meant to be. Well at least looks like everything's how it should be. Not sure if there's performance loss or something else but as it's just light office work I'm not too worried. Thanks. Hope this find helps someone else out.
