The YouTube videos freeze on the latest version of LineageOS

Hello, yesterday I installed LineageOS 21 on my phone. It seems like everything is working fine, except that when I open a video with the official YouTube app or using ReVanced, after a few seconds, the video image freezes, but the audio continues. Does this happen to anyone else? Is there a solution? In the meantime, I'm using Tubular, and it works fine. Thank you

  • I only ever use Tubular which, as you say, works fine.

    Are you running a VPN? Or a DNS adblock? Maybe the official YouTube app can tell you're doing that (or not running some background Google service) & is trying to punish you?

    One other thought: could it be related to hardware acceleration? Is there a setting somewhere where you can turn on/off access to hardware acceleration for certain apps? If so, maybe the official YouTube app had it turned off?

    • No, i am not using VPN or DNS at the moment. I can't find any hardware acceleration config either. I'm starting to think it may be due to some problem with MindTheGapps
