User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.139 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

Just load several video tags (just to force software decoder to takes place or one can disabled hardware acceleration) with a MP4 video file encoded with h264 Baseline@L2 (like the one attached).


Actual results:

Some videos (the ones that is decoded via software) is shown with the colors misplaced. I have opened this file with several tools (VLC, Windows Media Player, Kodi, Chrome, etc.)


Expected results:

Video should play normal, exactly like when Hardware Acceleration is used.

edge refuses to play those files, probably for that reason... We have no control on the h264 decoder.
