    When trying to play a game that uses unity, the tab on Google Chrome freezes and nothing works. I'm using Chrome Version 34.0.1847.131 m and Unity version 4.3.4, what's causing this?

    Can you elaborate a bit? What kind of OS do you have? What kind of graphics card? What game are you trying to play?

    I'm having the same problem since quite a while.
    OS: Windows 7 64bit
    GPU: GTX 780
    game: all unity webplayers ( with chrome. Firefox works fine )

    EDIT:
    before I start rambling, trying to explain it all. I made a quick video demonstating the problems


    - webplayer doesnt load
    - only closes if I spam the close button ( on tab )
    - after that, Windows menu entrys stay on screen
    - Chrom black screen after maximazing
    - to fix it I need to restart win or logout
    - all this only happens if I try to start a webplayer application

    Ok, first off, you made the video private and we cant see it.

    Also you may have a plugin thats blocking the player. Type in your adress bar "chrome : plugins" and look at the settings.

    should be public now. Problems are still the same with disabled plugins

    The games I play are just any game that uses unity. I've tried multiple sites, and they all just freeze the tab I'm using.
    I dunno what it is that's causing this, and it doesn't freeze everything, just the tab that's running unity.
