Chrome bug with Video and text-rendering
13 years ago
Me and a coworker had one of those very long nights trying to figure out this one. Turns out if you are using:
- HTML5 Video
- 3d css (perspective, backface-visibility, ...)
You will end up with invisible text, if it has text-rendering: optimizeLegibility. But only if it overlays the bounds of an element with the above properties.
The solution for our issue was to just change text-rendering to auto... But figuring out culprit was a pain in the ass.
