While I watch movies on Netflix, my screen glitches from time to time. It only happens when I use Safari, is there's any way to solve this issue? I know it's not GPU related cause I ran a Hardware test on my mac and it found no issues. Am I the only one with this issue? I updated to the last Mojave version and it still happens.

Malwarebytes solved my problem with freezing YouTube videos. Perhaps your glitch (not specified)? Occasionally Firefox solves issues with Safari as well.

on my MacBook Air (2015) in Mojave 10.14 (before macOS Mojave 10.14.1) Safari could not play full screen videos from any website without glitching every few seconds.
the way i was able to stop it from doing that was to turn on Captions (if there were any captions).
this always worked to prevent it from glitching ! LOL

I know that glitch, but the one I'm talking about is different, it happens very few times, and it just grainy colors or a flash of color for less than a second. It only happens while watching Netflix using safari. I don't think is the GPU cause I ran the Hardware test and everything was fine.
