Description of the issue:
Youtube in the brave Browser for android at 720p and 480p every 20-30 seconds stutters and ‘buffers’ without buffering and plays abother 20-30 seconds and repeat. This is on wifi, 3 bars at 26mbs and 5 bars of 4G LTE network. I only say its Brave because in the Youtube app it runs smooth as it should, same area of my work, within seconds of switching and this seems to have started when going fullscreen on a Brave Youtube video, the top right 1/4 of the screen gets a flashing black box while the play bar is on screen. Has never been like this and have been playing YT in Brave since 6/6/2021 on this device. Could also be the change since the switch from pannel tabs in brave to the inferior squares tabs.
How can this issue be reproduced?
- Open Youtube
- Try Playing a video in 480p or higher
- Play it in Youtube app and it works fine
Expected result:
The video should play more than 20 sexond clips with several seconds of buffer between 20 second clips.
