Description
Bug Description:
This happened before on the Microsoft store version, so i uninstalled it and tried the executable, it seemed like it was fixed at first but now it happened again, reinstalling the program, restarting my computer and other ways failed to fix it, when I try to open a video file the first time the video plays fine, then on my second playback the first seconds of the video lag and skip frames and then doesn't play the audio, and then it continues doing it with every future video I play, I don't know what causes it and it's really annoying because I love the program and I've been using it for months, please look into this.
