Hello @Roxette

could you go to brave://settings/system and turn off hardware acceleration

if it work fine then

do you have dual gpu like NVIDIA and intel if yes?
could you try to fix the gpu for brave there setting for that in your gpu setting try to find it
try to use the nvidie for brave and if it did not work try to use intel and ofcourse turn the hardware acceleration back on

hope one of those help and have a nice day :slight_smile:

Can you check in Chrome, does the flickering occur there?

This only occurs when GPU scheduling in Windows is enabled
Hardware acceleration in the browser can be on or off

No it does not (that was meant to be in my original post ;edited now)

I’ve now turned the browser acceleration and the scheduling off. Didn’t need either anyways.
Shame it works on other browsers though
