I get the new builds as soon as they're released and I'm currently using 77.0.230.2 on Windows 10. Starting with this build when it came out a few days ago:
Videos on Reddit and other sites including Facebook Stories don't play unless I'm constantly scrolling up/down (two finger scroll on touchpad of SurfaceBook 1). If I stop, the video stops. The audio will still work sometimes, but the video doesn't. However, sometimes it works a little bit. For instance, when playing a FB Story, let's say it has 4 clips. After the first clip, about 15% of the left side of the video will freeze. After the 2nd clip, another 10% (now 25% total) will freeze, and so on, until the video ends. This happens a little bit on Reddit. It either displays this way or doesn't display at all and plays audio only.
I've attached a still of the most recent video with the URL here: https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/cm3avm/fun_field_trip/

Add to the above: Animated GIF's on Facebook.
Scrolling, they work. Non-scrolling, no work.

Same problem here but in a slightly different fashion. The video keeps stuttering and breaking up and mouse movements make absolutely no difference. Video in the link
Update: similar problem with video on twitter as well, and I suspect that would be the case with most videos

@Deleted Thank you! This fix the issue, but do you know why this causes the problem? I'm just curious.

@ArkansasBen77 This is a strange when reading through this discussion I opened the link on your original post and had the same issues that you described. After disabling the flag and reopening the link it seemed to work correctly. When I opened the link in your newest post I was experiencing the same issues as you. Did you disable the flag and go back to the link in your first post to see if there was any change?

@SCook1280 - I disabled the flag as soon as I saw it above several days ago and it's still disabled.
The video link in my original post works fine now. I try to https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/ and the videos on that front page have problems on the left side and upper part of the videos. But when I click the headline and the thread pops up, the video plays fine.
Maybe I need to uninstall all versions and install the newest from scratch? Who knows.

@ArkansasBen77 Yea same, I'll have to watch this discussion to see if one of the team shines a light on this problem. I also think that you should get a shirt for this one.
