Found it!!! A long time ago I installed an app called indicator-multiload that runs in the top right of the menu bar. I happened to turn it off and the video started running better. I have now uninstalled it and videos are playing normally again. I'm not sure the process, but this bug can b

I have removed the System76 extension and the problem persists. I'm attaching an updated picture of my extensions. ** Attachment added: "Extentioins_2_020-05-14 14-35-42.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mutter/+bug/1877735/+attachment/5371713/+files/Extentioins_2_020-05-14%2014-

Thanks. The high CPU of gnome-shell and the fact it's using 1.4GB of RAM sounds like you're using some extensions. Next please uninstall all gnome-shell extensions then reboot and retry. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

Thanks. Choppy video in a windowed browser is probably either a browser bug or a compositor bug. Please run 'top' in a Terminal window while it's happening so we can see if anything is using particularly high CPU during the problem. ** Package changed: ubuntu => mutter (Ubuntu) ** Also affects:
