Video & Youtube cannot play

I am using MacBook Air M1. Sometimes, all of videos or even Youtube cannot play on my laptop. I can see the picture on the YouTube and there is a running circle on it. This is the biggest issue so far.

Restart can solve the problem, but this issue has been happening every week.

Does anyone know where is the problem and how to solve it?

Thanks in advance.

Boot into Safe Mode and then Clear your Temporary Internet Files of Safari:

Booting into Safe Mode: [hold down shift upon boot until the login screen appears]. See if this is still an issue. Safe Mode lets items run as default, without changes whatsoever. That is possible because caches of your macOS are temporarily disabled while in Safe Mode
