Description

Hello. I started to use hyprland recently on my computer and noticed that whenever i make an app (Any app) or youtube video fullscreen my screen goes black, then it shows the video for some seconds and then goes black again. I noticed that in my misc config my vrr was set to 2.

If i switch my vrr to 0, everything works perfectly, but i also cant use vrr on my games. If i try to set it to 1 my screen goes black all the time.

Is there a way to fix it trough configurations or it is a bug on hyprland itself?

Also, heres my current misc config:

misc {
  disable_hyprland_logo = true
  disable_splash_rendering = true
  vfr = true
  vrr = 0
  mouse_move_enables_dpms = true
  enable_swallow = true
  swallow_regex = ^(kitty)$
  focus_on_activate = false
  initial_workspace_tracking = 0
  middle_click_paste = false
}

And my monitor config:

Monitor HDMI-A-1 (ID 0):

And here my monitor config on hyprland:

monitor = HDMI-A-1,[email protected], 0x0, 1

Thanks for the help, everyone.
