Google Home Preview camera grid jerking, bouncing, flashing and flickering FIXED!!!

[spetro]

I've been struggling to fix the camera preview grid on Google Home preview and Nest web based sites.  Only had a problem of jerking, bouncing, flashing and flickering during the grid preview.  Nest support was useless as well as reaching out to Chrome support.  I use multi generation Nest cameras/Drop cams.  Could not duplicate problem using Firefox, so I knew it was a Chrome issue.

So here is the fix, if you are feeling the same pain.  In Chrome go to settings, go to system, uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available"........fixed.

Hi @spetro 

Thanks for posting that. I would also suggest sending feedback about this. There is a feedback option in the three dot menu on the web based views.

Thanks again!

I do not see that option.  All I have is float topic, newest oldest, rss feed, unsubscribe, blah, blah

Sorry, I meant in the Home.Google.Com page

The feedback they get in app or from the web views page is super valuable!
