Annoying black screen. Can only hear audio

Are you trying to learn something important on Udemy but you only see a black screen? You can hear them but can't see dick? Me too! I found a fix.

chrome settings to fix udemy video black screen
make sure to disable hardware acceleration

I am doing this on my Macbook Air M1. But it should help you out too.

I tried both chrome and safari and had black screen in both.

But theres an easy fix in chrome.

Go into settings/system/disable hardware acceleration.

You'll need to restart chrome but after that the video should work fine.

Conclusion

I was super bummed when I paid £25 for a Javascript that did not work at all. Fortunately I found a fix and started learning.

I hope this helps someone in the future.

Did you find a way to fix it in Safari? Leave a comment if you did.

(not a huge chrome fan) :)
