YouTube videos on new M4 pro MacBook

’ve been having a bit of a problem with using the PiP function on YouTube while watching videos on my MacBook. It used to work perfectly on my old Intel Macbook i9, but since I got my new M4 Pro MacBook, the videos keep freezing. The audio is working fine, but the video part keeps freezing for a second and then continues for a few seconds before freezing again. It’s really annoying, and it’s not like I have more things open than I did before with my old i9 Macbook. I’m using Safari and everything is up to date, so I’m not sure what’s causing the issue?

Thanks.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 15.1

yes I read that above...

Nothing more definitive than stating 15.1.1 — nothing more obscure when making a relative statement.

Do you have any extension in Safari, particularly things like an ad blocker, or are you using any sort of VPN? If you are, try disabling said item and see if that makes any difference.
