Bug or Regression?

Bug

Description

I have a 144hz FreeSync Monitor and AMD RX 7900XT. Enabling VRR on that display and watching a video that doesn't run on 144fps makes the screen flicker in brightness by a few % a couple times per second.

I have VRR on 2 so fullscreen only, so watching the videos in windowed mode doesn't produce flickering.

Running games on something lower than 144fps doesn't produce flickering aswell.

How to reproduce

Turn VRR on 2, start video playback (youtube for example) and make it fullscreen. Observer flickering

Crash reports, logs, images, videos

No response

ye thats like a driver/monitor thing

I don't even have VRR on, I explicitly set it off for my monitor and it STILL flickers when ANYTHING is fullscreen for me.
It's really annoying.
