Videos laggy and slow

Description of the issue: After the new Brave update, I experienced that all videos are somehow slow and laggy in the browser. (It is like when you set the speed of a video to 0.5 seconds.)

I have restarted my device several times but nothing happened.

Brave Version:
Version: 1.23.74

Mobile Device details:
Phone: Sony Xperia 5 II.
Android 11

Hey, can you test either Brave Beta or Nightly (via the play store). Does it help?

Hi! No, I tried both of them but still bad.

@Andris123,
Do you have Chrome or another Chromium based browser on your device that you can use to test and see if you get the same behavior there?

I do, I tested on Google Chrome and yeah, the same problem there as well.

@Andris123,
Thanks for confirming. Very likely an upstream chromium issue. @fanboynz would you mind checking to see if you can find out if that’s the case on the Chromium end?

Thank you for your help. I just tested, and if I use an older version of the Google Chrome, the problem disappears.

Using my OnePlus 6 (yeah, an older phone), I couldn’t replicate this. But others could.

Current Chrome builds have the same issue?

Yeah, I tested some of them, and all the same.

Sorry, I meant to say I tested some other browsers too. But the answer to your question is yes.

Does disabling tab groups in brave://flags help?

Nope, still the same.
