Could you please share some logs? Reproduce the issue and then go to: Settings > Advanced > Debug logs. Then share the logs with the sharing service you prefer (Google Drive, Dropbox, pastebin...).
A sample file would be helpful too.

I don't know if this is important but all the movies i have problems are av1 10 bit HDR. And hardware video output is also set to HDR.

They should be at your internal memory root. Their name start with "vlc_".
