Occasional video glitch

Hi,
I'm running Big Sur and VLC 3.0.16. My MacBook Air 2020 is attached to TV via HDMI cable. When watching a movie every so often (it's irregular, every 10/15 minutes) the film jumps. I've reinstalled VLC but it's still happening. Any thoughts would be most welcome as although it's irregular and glitches quite far apart, it's still annoying.

Could you collect a verbose log while playing a file where this issue occurs? Additionally can you provide details about what exactly the issue manifests? Does it just jumps forward a bit?
To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.

From windows command line or linux or macos terminal, launch vlc with options -vv and --logfile=file

  • Windows example: vlc.exe -vv --logfile=c:\vlclog.txt
  • Linux example: vlc -vv --logfile=vlclog.txt, or vlc -vv 2>&1 > logfile.txt
Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)

Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.
