iPhone 14 Pro Max slow motion at 1080p HD 240 fps is stuttering/dropping frames.

When I record slow motion video with my iPhone 14 Pro Max at 1080p HD 240 fps, the playback is stuttering/dropping frames. The info button on my iPhone is showing 219,22 fps instead of 240 fps! Never had this with my much older iPhone 6 plus. Is this a bug? How to fix this?

The issue exists on multiple videos. After a restart, the problem is gone for a few days, and then it starts again. Today I shot a video with 240fps, and the info shows 181,84 fps. Playback is stuttering. I have the latest iOS update.
