Does this only happen on live streams? |

A theory that we have is that there is some graphics card setting turned on, that doesn't like the length of the video increasing. With that assumption we can also assume that it is happening every 5 seconds, because that's the interval that the new live manifest is fetched, then the segment downloaded and appended to the player buffer. Maybe the video length changing is causing the graphics card driver to do some kind of reset, which is why it flickers for a moment. Historically weird graphical issues happening in FreeTube on Windows 10 have been caused by NVIDIA graphics card settings. So please check you're graphics card settings and make sure the drivers are up to date. |

It happens randomly and I am using a RX5700XT. Could a hacker be causing this? My network was breached and they have been doing weird things to harass me like blocking webpages, powershell popups, freezing streams on kick and twitch. Is there any monitoring tool you'd recommend to help find the issue?

I dont think a hacker would cause these kind of issues. In the past we have seen allot of issues with the player because of weird graphics settings turned on and we've also seen issues with the player when the graphics drivers were outdated.
Please try this first. |
