Description

Downloaded videos from Reddit result in severe artifacts not present in the source video. Seems to happen about every 6 seconds.

It is the same bug report as this #21034 except it was closed as duplicate without any mention of the actual duplicate issue.

I believe this original bug report was probably mistakenly closed.
