Oh my gosh, I have my browser back!! Disabling hardware acceleration did the trick; thank you!
A couple of days ago, Brave just started... lagging. Taking forever to launch, with a white screen (10+ seconds). Taking just as long to open a new tab. Not redrawing unless I minimized and re-maximized the browser. And so on. I've been too busy with work so I reverted to Firefox for casual browsing and Edge for work. I had time tonight to look for a solution, so I dropped in to Github to look for a related issue and found this. It needs fixing, but in the meantime, thanks!
Lenovo T470s, i7-7600u with Intel HD 620 on Windows 10 20H2. Brave 1.25.70 Chromium: 91.0.4472.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)
No Update yet ?
@onespot97 Are you still having issues with our latest 1.31.87 with hardware acceleration enabled?
Yes, finally a reply after months and now m on Windows 11. But i will double check by reinstalling the browser.
Yes. The issue still persist even after reinstalling Brave latest version on Windows 11
@onespot97 Can you post the details of what you have here: brave://gpu/ If you open that same page in chrome or edge, anything that sticks out that's different?

Hey , I use brave and have some issues regarding hardware acceleration. If I turn it off :
1) Youtube videos lag at higher resolution and in/out of fullscreen for videos is laggy. 2) Twitch videos stuck freez for 5-15 seconds while I am on other tab while the audio still goes fine. 3)When I alt+tab to go to other screens while any tab is in full screen be it just full screen tab aur video, most of the time it doesn't show that browser window in full screen.
If I turn it on :
All the above issues are fixed but whole screen starts flickering on random intervals which is very irritating to the eyes. So I request a fix to this issue as without hardware acceleration on, videos are laggy and the experience becomes bad many times.
Chiming in because I think my issue is similar: on a fresh Windows 11 installation on a Lenovo Legion 5 (AMD 5800H iGPU and Nvidia 3050 Ti dGPU) Brave is the only chromium-based browser I'm experiencing extreme lagging and crashing with. Disabling hardware acceleration makes brave responsive and usable, but utilizes much more cpu.
Drivers are up-to-date for both AMD (21.11.3) and nVidia (496.49).
Editing to call out the fact that I have performed no customization to Brave.
Edit 2: Brave version is Version 1.32.106 Chromium: 96.0.4664.45 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Sadly still a problem in Chrome version Chrome/97.0.4692.71
brave://GPU
compared to Edge gives these differences

In Youtube the video plays fine as long as the mouse hovers over it and it triggers the playback overlay, or the "stats for nerds" are layed over the video. Could that be some sort of low priority thing for just the playback?
My specs: AMD 5950X, AMD 6800xt, 32GB 3600cl14
I also have extreme issues with hardware acceleration. Videos, for example twitch, are stuttering and lagging extreme. This issue only occurs with enabled hardware acceleration.
On Google Chrome hardware acceleration works like a charm.
brave:gpu and chrome:gpu looks practicly identical.
System: Ryzen 5800x RTX3080
Any info I can provide?
Chromium shows the same behavior as Brave.
So this most likely needs to be fixed in chromium/chromium
Man, you saved my life! I didn't knew HW accel can be turned off.
I tried to post this problem (crashes after renaming crome.exe to something.exe on AMD on Windows https://habr.com/ru/companies/yandex/articles/721374/ ) on reddit, but moders deleted my thread.
Description of the issue: White screen After restoring the Brave Window from minimized state
How can this issue be reproduced?
1) Enable Hardware acceleration 2) open few tabs with websites 3) minimize and wait for 20-30 seconds or couple of minutes 4) Maximize/Restore Brave Window and then for few seconds a white screen is displayed
Expected result:
Brave Version( check About Brave): [ Version 1.25.68 Chromium: 91.0.4472.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Additional Information:
Graphic card : Intel HD 630/ Nvidia GTX 1060 . Windows 21H1/20H2 Its the same with both Intel and Nvidia. I already tried to open brave with Nvidia No issue with other chromium based browser like Edge and Chrome.
Graphic driver is updated
I even tried to do a clean installation of Windows 10 21h1
