1 Right-click in the middle of the video below (or on the on the video you're having issues with) 
2 Click Settings 
3 Click the left-most tab 
4 Uncheck the 'Enable hardware acceleration' checkbox to disable hardware acceleration. 
5 Refresh the page 

For those using Chrome: Go to Settings -> Show Advanced Settings (scroll all the way down and click the text to expand) -> System -> Untick "Use hardware acceleration when available".

The steps for other browsers should be similar, but Google if you can't find it.
