Green screen when playing videos.

[Android Central Question]

Good day to you all,
I have been facing a certain problem with my new phone (Meizu 7 pro plus) which is basically a green screen while playing online videos. So far the green screen appeared in both Facebook and YouTube. But not in downloaded videos. I bought the phone a week ago and it is still under warranty. Is this issue easy to fix? Or should I just hand it back to be repaired.
The green screen doesn't appear all the time. Sometimes it appeared half way through a video.
Thanks

The problem happens more often on when im watching a playlist
It gets fixed when i exit and enter the video again but it gets annoying in picture in picture where its all green and funky

You haven't mentioned yet if it happens with streaming only or with locally saved videos as well. Are you saying it's only with YouTube? Did you already make sure everything is updated in the Play Store?

Ok, in Pie, Android System Webview's function is served by Chrome -- so try uninstalling all updates to Chrome and see if the problem persists.

Even I have got the same problem in my android phone (OP Nord 2) while watching 9gag videos/gifs. I am using Chrome Canary v97.0.4692.0 & Android webview v95.0.4638.74.
