Falls back to the video capture utility that is invoked when javascript is enabled on youtube. They literally are watching what you do and causes lag.

Video Capture Service running despite registry edits

This does happen in Chrome as well and it looks like a variety of things can trigger it.

Out of curiosity, do you get prompted when you try to actually use vid capture on Discord or YT or any site?
