Firefox on new laptop windows 11. (AMD Ryzen 7 5800HS with Radeon Graphics)

Have noticed only when i use Firefox i get intermittent flickering on the screen. It does not effect browsing, though it has frozen on a couple of occasions. I don't know if that is connected or just something else.

I have tried two trouble shoot 'fixes' i found whilst looking for a solution and neither have worked.

1 - turning off recommended performance settings and hardware acceleration. 1b - turning hardware acceleration back on.

2 - checking in troubleshoot mode to see if it's an extension. Flickering happened in troubleshoot mode too.

I got this new Chromebook, and now I'm having issues using YouTube. When I select a video to watch, a message pops up at the top saying "To play video, you may need to install the required video codecs." I am able to watch the video I selected anyhow, with some minor issues with the picture and its frames I believe, however, when I try to watch a different video, it does not work. Sometimes it will play for a short bit, but will then stop, and start buffering. When I then refresh the page, the video will not play and will only buffer. I am not sure what to do, and if this is an issue with the browser, or the device itself, please help?
