I have this problem too

I'm using Galaxy S21 FE, I set the dark mode and eye protecting (makes the screen go yellow) to be auto enabled at 11pm everyday and around that time, when I open a Youtube video or Netflix/Disney Plus video or simply any video, it stutters for about 2 seconds then plays normally.  Is anyone having the same issue and found any fixes? Thanks.

I use Dark Mode permanently @nguyenpro_hl however I do not activate the eye protection feature.

My YouTube plays seamlessly.

If you de activate the eye protection then does YouTube play fine ?

@nguyenpro_hl: Try heading to Settings > Battery and device care > Optimise now, followed by Memory > Clean now, then head to Settings > Apps > YouTube (as an example) > Storage > Clear cache. Does the stuttering persist following these steps?

well the stuttering only happens around the start of a day (12am or like that) and when dark mode, eye protecting enabled so I'll let you know if it happens again

I can confirm it still happens, right at the start of day (12am). I tried like you said but when watching ANY videos, it stutters

This is happening to me as well, almost every app that is capable of playing videos on my phone except TikTok, has a stutter within the first 2 seconds of its playtime, and then it continues on normally. Did you find a solution? I'm using a Samsung a825g BTW if that helps

I did not find a solution for this but I discovered that the issue only happens when you play videos and the audio comes out through a bluetooth device connected to your phone

Ah I see, about time I got wired earphones anyway, the little sound lags are a bit uncomfortable for me, and I genuinely liked the wired feels of earphones, really wish they didn't do away with the 3.5mm jacks
