Attn: Chrome Users seeing poor fonts on the site

This was mentioned in the site improvements sticky, but I felt it deserved some more attention. Apparently with the latest Google Chrome update, fonts are rendered differently, and many have reported that it looks very poor on various websites, including Blu-ray.com.

Here are some possible solutions posted by developer iceman. The 2nd has been confirmed to work by another member here.

There seem to be 2 fixes:
1) Run chrome.exe /high-dpi-support=1 /force-device-scale-factor=1
or 2) type "chrome://flags/#disable-direct-write" in your Chrome window and click "Enable" on "Disable DirectWrite". DirectWrite should be off.
