I have been using a 2012 Macbook air 128gb for the last few years and it has served me really well. A while back i started having issues when watching movies etc on VLC where it would really get pixelated at times coming and going in waves, especially the dark colours and this was with everything from low quality to high quality video, thinking this was perhaps a glitch with VLC i tried the same videos on quicktime (most of the formats would however not work on it though) with the same results, so after a bit of asking around i thought that the graphics card was giving problems...... it was getting a bit long in the tooth so i decided to buy a new model and got a new Macbook air 128gb 13". I did a backup of the old machine on time machine and then used that on the new mac and to my dismay i am having the exact same problems with the new computer!
So i am now wondering if its perhaps the media players or is it some sort of software issue that i have transferred with the time machine or should i perhaps try another type of media player.
I have tried VLC 2.2.4 as well as 1.1.12 and they both have the same pixilated problem. My current mac has the following specs:
MacBook Air (13-inch, 2017)
1,8 GHz Intel Core i5
8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB
Any help or input would really be appreciated.
