class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a couple of ways to get rid of the media resource decoding error, and they include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\"

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although hardware acceleration is useful, it can make Twitch act up. It reduces software rendering capabilities, ultimately improving CPU performance. However, this might cause the streaming service to malfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's how you disable hardware acceleration:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Open Google Chrome<\/li><li>Type Chrome:\/\/Settings into the address bar<\/li><li>Press Enter to open Google's settings<\/li><li>Click Advanced tab, and tap System (on the right corner)<\/li><li>Toggle off Hardware Acceleration<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_2_Clear_Browsers_Cache_and_Cookies\"><\/span>Solution 2: Clear Browser's Cache and Cookies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You might be dealing with bad cookies. Most likely, data was written over them in the wrong format. Clear your browser's temporary data to fix this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Open Google Chrome<\/li><li>Click on the three dots in the top-right corner<\/li><li>Open the drop down menu<\/li><li>Go to the More Tools section, and click on Clear Browsing data window<\/li><li>Set the Time Range to All Time, and check the following boxes: Clear Browsing Data, Cached Images and Files, and Cookies and Other Site data<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once done, restart your computer. You should be good to go now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_3_Enable_Third_Party_Cookies\"><\/span>Solution 3: Enable Third Party Cookies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you haven't allowed third-party cookies to work, hiccups like this can pop up. Enabling this feature should help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Open Twitch<\/li><li>Go to the page the error code 3000 appears on<\/li><li>You should see a cookie icon with a red X<\/li><li>Click it to open the drop-down settings<\/li><li>Check the \"Always Allow &lt;website URL&gt; to Set Cookies\" option<\/li><li>Tap Done<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_4_Update_Chrome\"><\/span>Solution 4: Update Chrome<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When was the last time you updated Google chrome? You may be dealing with a bug if it's been a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go ahead and download any new firmware to fix this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Launch Google Chrome<\/li><li>Click on the three dots in the top-right corner under Settings<\/li><li>Click on Help, and go to About Google Chrome<\/li><li>Tap the Update button (if you don't see it, you're using the latest browser version)<\/li><li>Relaunch<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Since I want to cover all bases, I have looked at how to update some other popular browsers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is how you update Mozilla Firefox:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Launch the browser<\/li><li>Click on the menu button (on the right side of the Firefox toolbar)<\/li><li>Go to the Help section<\/li><li>Select About Firefox<\/li><li>Wait for the browser to check for any updates<\/li><li>An update should automatically start downloading<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is how you update Opera:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Launch the browser<\/li><li>Click on the Opera icon<\/li><li>Click on Updates and Recovery<\/li><li>Select the same option<\/li><li>Check for updates and install them<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/A-live-streamer-playing-games.jpg\" alt=\"A live streamer playing games\" class=\"wp-image-2003\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/A-live-streamer-playing-games.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/A-live-streamer-playing-games-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_5_Use_Incognito_Mode\"><\/span>Solution 5: Use Incognito Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If nothing has worked so far, it might be time to try working around the problem. There are several ways to do this, but the best one is to access Twitch using incognito mode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How Google Chrome users can enter incognito mode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Open Chrome<\/li><li>Click on the three dots in the top (under Settings)<\/li><li>Tap the New Incognito Window option<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once in Incognito, enter the Twitch website from the address bar and log into your account. See whether the problem still appears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_6_Use_Another_Browser\"><\/span>Solution 6: Use Another Browser<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also try using another browser. On the same note, you can try logging onto Twitch from another device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solution_7_Use_Twitch_Stand_Alone_App\"><\/span>Solution 7: Use Twitch Stand Alone App<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Downloading the streaming service's desktop app is another way to work around the problem, instead of directly trying to solve it. The web app is completely free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you need to do is head to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/p\/twitch\/9pfjp1q9r4fk?activetab=pivot:overviewtab\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Windows store<\/a>, search for the web version of the application, then download and launch it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Answered below are some popular questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Do_I_Keep_Getting_Error_2000_on_Twitch\"><\/span>Why Do I Keep Getting Error 2000 on Twitch?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another error that users face. Unfortunately, you can't use the same fixes as above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I wrap up, I want to discuss why users face this Twitch error code, and how to fix it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bad_Internet\"><\/span>Bad Internet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There's a chance that you have a bad internet connection. You can take care of it by disconnecting and reconnecting back to the internet. This will help, especially if you're dealing with a network error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, your internet may be fine, but you may be too far from your router. The easiest way to solve this would be to move closer. Of course, you can go ahead and connect to any other wireless network too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if you have a VPN switched on, you may have a poor signal. Your IP would be tunnelled through a server abroad, and the further it goes, the slower your connection would be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's how you deal with this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Open the VPN<\/li><li>Click on the disconnect button<\/li><li>Wait for your connection to be closed<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Anti-Virus_is_Running\"><\/span>Anti-Virus is Running<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Although anti-viruses are useful, they can cause issues like this one. The only way around this is to temporarily disable your antivirus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here's what you do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Select Start<\/li><li>Type in Windows Security<\/li><li>Search for your PC's antivirus<\/li><li>Select the Windows Security app from the list<\/li><li>Go to Virus &amp; Threat protection<\/li><li>Select Manage Settings under the Virus &amp; Threat protection button<\/li><li>Disable Real-time protection off<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Live-Streaming-Gaming-Computer.jpg\" alt=\"Live Streaming Gaming Computer\" class=\"wp-image-2005\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Live-Streaming-Gaming-Computer.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Live-Streaming-Gaming-Computer-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpuforever.com\/resources\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read more resources<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span>Final Thoughts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, I've dealt with the Twitch error 3000 before. There are many reasons why it appears and it's usually due to your web modules. One of the best fixes is to clear data, and clear cache. Disabling hardware acceleration can work too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might also have luck updating your browser. It could be outdated and bugging out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If none of the tips and tricks get rid of the Twitch error code, you can use a different browser, or download and use the Twitch desktop app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have covered another error code that can pop up as well - Twitch error 2000.
