What happened?

I can't watch any YouTube video on Zen, it's EXTREMELY blurred and it's impossible to see anything. However, this does not always happen; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I got it working right now by using Picture-in-Picture mode and disabling it again. Once, I also got it working by changing my privacy setting from strict to standard, which I thought would have been the problem, but it randomly reappeared. I have no idea what causes this. I tried disabling all extensions, no difference.

Reproducible?

• [X] I have checked that this issue cannot be reproduced on Mozilla Firefox.

Im pretty sure i also tried restarting the browser, what i didn't try yet is creating a new profile and checking if the problem is there too. The problem is that this randomly happens and i don't know what causes it.

Try disabling tracking protection

[Hallilogod]

Yeah, use a separate profile for youtube for a few days entirely and see if the issue occurs because this seems like an issue specific to you.
