User level: Level 1 (20 points)Hi all,
While I launch any video at Apple TV+ app at MacBook Air 2019 13'(Catalina 10.15.1), video flickers or twinkles a little bit. This issue is only this app (the other ones or desktop are ok), I've tried to change video quality, on/off True Tone, change brightness settings, it doesn't help. Mac diagnostic revealed no issues. Is someone else with the same problem? Is is a bug of TV+ application?
Thanks in advance.

If the screen flickers, then my initial thought would be an error with the graphics card, related to video playback, possibly in a software driver, or in the hardware. Hardware issues shouldn’t happen with a new machine, but warranty exists for a reason.
For confirmation, do try if you can invoke the symptoms in a different app that does video playback. I don’t think it is the app itself, as then it would happen to every user.

See if it happens with “Automatically adjust brightness” off.
