Hi MrBlues,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We understand that you're having an issue with video playback on your 2021 MacBook Pro running macOS Ventura. We'd like to help.


Does this issue only happen when playing videos through QuickTime? If you're not sure, we'd like to see if any videos played through Photos run into the same issue.


In the meantime, check out the QuickTime Player User Guide to see if there are any helpful tips for your exact issue with playback: QuickTime Player User Guide for Mac - Apple Support


Hope that helps!
