flickering screen while playing netflix

Hi,

 

I've got a question. When i watch a movie of serie on netflix, the screen sort of flickers, but still keeps playing the movie/serie. This keeps happening every 2 minutes or so. I have a macbook pro, 13' inch, early 2015. Version 10.12. 2,9 GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 and Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB. Does anybody else has this problem and more importantly, does anyone knows the solution?

Hello sepzrzo,

After reviewing your post, it sounds like the screen on the MacBook Pro is flickering while you are watching videos on Netflix. There are a couple things we can do to troubleshoot this issue. I would recommend you read these articles, they tell you how to boot into safe mode to see if any 3rd party applications could be causing this to happen. Then you can reset the NVRAM which resets video settings. Finally the SMC if it turns out to be a power issue causing the flickering.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Have a nice day.

Hey there! It appears you are facing the same issues as the ones described in the following threads:

 

This bug appears to happen exclusively on Early 2015 MBPs, as seen in the thread discussions.

 

@jeremy_v, we've attempted lots of possible solutions to no avail. It still happens to us MBP owners and it's really disappointing that such a new device is receiving this kind of issue. Is there any way Apple could give us a deeper support in this issue?

 

Thanks

I am also experiencing this issue, but I am using a 2011 MBP 15 non-retina anti-glare display running el capitan 10.11.4, so this problem extends beyond just the 2015 models.

That's interesting, broncodude37, yours is the first case of a non-retina MacBook... Here's a summary of what we've got so far:

 

Issue

 

- Netflix flickering

- Netflix videos rewind like a VHS for about a second

- Happens in medium intervals, from 30 seconds up to 2 minutes

- Happens exclusively on Safari and on Chrome fullscreen

- Moving the mouse to the top of the screen to show the menu bar (hence not being full screen)

- In some devices, changing the resolution from "default for display" to "scaled" and selecting something different than default removes flickering

- Reboot in recovery mode, NVRAM reset and SMC reset didn't work

- Only "solution" so far has been playing on Firefox

- Affects mostly 2015 MacBook Pros, but we have reports of 2015 MacBooks (12-inch) and 2011 MacBook Pros (13-inch, non-retina)

I had this on my rmbp 13 2016 without touchbar and all I had to do to fix the problem was turn off automatically adjust brightness in the Display settings. Hope this helps someone... I appear to be the only 2016 model to have experienced this????

I have this issue currently - the video seems to "jump" to the left and then jump back in a split second, about every minute or so when watching Netflix full screen in safari. Same model - 13" MacBook Pro Retina.

 

Currently running 10.12.1 (16B2657) and will now try a system update.

Nope, 10.12.4 (16E195) didn't fix - now seeing occasional flashes of inverted rainbow colours during playback after the update, possibly less frequently. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Hello

 

I also have the issue, but disabling the automatic graphic switch (between the intel chipset and the GPU) solved it.
So it seems to be something related to the intel HD graphics I believe.

Disabling night shift colours also seems to fix it.
