Windows 10: MS Edge and slide show...

MS Edge having issues with slideshow at the USA Today website. The slideshow of 90 pics from the World Cup, on the bottom of the page, is slow and CPU utilization fluctuate between 60 - 80%. The system becomes sluggish, until Edge is closed, here's a capture of the page with resource utilization:





The W10 version is 10162, running in VMware player.

The W7 host system accessing the same slideshow with IE11 has no problem with the slideshow. The CPU utilization increases by 20-30%, but the system does not get sluggish and I can't click fast enough to slow down the slideshow.

Can anyone else test the slideshow with Edge to see if it's the Edge browser, or my system? TIA...

Internet slideshow images stretched horizontally in IE11 & Edge

I am running 64bit W10 on a Dell desktop. MS Edge & MS IE11 are current with Windows Update. Certain internet web slideshows show the slides distorted horizontally badly when viewed with Edge or IE11. Both Firefox and Chrome display the same slides perfectly.
Here's a link to start the latest web slideshow that is bad in IE11 and Edge:

Swing Sequence: Jimmy Walker - Golf Digest

Anyone know how to fix this issue?

 

Casting from MS Edge and Windows 10 to Chromecast or Samsung Smart TV

Am unable to cast from MS Edge to either Chromecast or Samsung Smart TV. Samsung Smart TV shows in Devices but not in Action Center. Can someone explain how casting using MS Edge works in Win 10?

Win+P pops up the "Project" slide out menu, but does not see either the Chromecast or Smart TV "Samsung LED (65)" devices.

Chrome sees only the Chromecast device and works with it. Chrome does not see "Samsung LED (65)" device that was visible and worked with both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.

Thanks in advance.

 

Are you talking about the 58 second video?

It plays fine with minimal cpu usage for me if that's what you're trying to view.

 

I just tried the slide show and it worked.. not perfect.. a bit of hesitation but it works. But keep in mind that I have mine set up on an SSD not in a VM.

 

Yeah, so? My VM is setup on an SSD drive as well... *chuckle*chuckle*chuckle

Kidding aside...

Thanks for testing. In retrospect, it seems to me that it's the VMware video driver that caused the issue with slideshow. Again, thanks for testing...
