While watching full battle resolutions, I'm not able to see any difference between the "cinematic" and "random" view options. I know my eyesight is failing, but what's the distinction between the two views???

I had first tried a restore point from Feb 1 which didn't get rid of it. I then tried an automatic restore point from Jan 26, but it didn't seem to work either.
