Anyone seeing slow Netflix with Fedora 30?

I am seeing Netflix going into slow motion and the audio and video go out of sync.

This doesn’t happen on youtube. My broadband connection seems fine, I am getting 50Mb/s download speeds, and 30Mb/s upload.

I don’t know if this is a netflix problem or not. My phone seems fine on the same connection. I am on kernel :

Linux wolfgang 5.1.11-300.fc30.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 17 19:33:15 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Hi; What browser are you using?

Firefox, I changed to an earlier kernel and it improved.

mmm, can you test it in chromium, chromium-freeworld and others? We need check if the issue is only with Firefox.

Same issue on Chrome, youtube is also affected but not to the same degree. Netflix is unwatchable.

Worth to try:

It’s the same on Google Chrome. If the problem was specific to netflix/broadband then surely the android phone and tv would be affected but they don’t appear to be. I only see this on a laptop running Fedora 30.

Not seeing any issues here using the following browsers at the minute:

qutebrowser-1.6.3-1.fc30.noarch
firefox-67.0.4-1.fc30.x86_64

Could you look at the system resource usage when you’re viewing netflix and see if there’s anything odd there? Could we also have the output of this command in the meantime?

fpaste --sysinfo --printonly

pls:
Laptop: ?
VGA: ?
HDD/SSD: ?

The fpaste output should include most of this information.
