videos go black when on a tab for too long. Audio is still there and playing. How do I fix it?

Question

Processor AMD Athlon Silver 7120U with Radeon Graphics (2.40 GHz)
Installed RAM 8.00 GB (7.24 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Graphics driver: Adrenaline 25.8.1 (Originally I didn't have this one I had the basic one it comes w/ but even with that one I would get the same issues)

Issue in detail: Hello I have been having issues with video play back on my internet browsers. I use chrome but to clarify I have tried them all and they all have the same issue. Basically after awhile on a tab any videos loaded will go black. The audio is still there but the video itself no longer shows images unless I go to a new tab. I have tried turning off hardware acceleration, I have deleted my browsers cache, I have changed my power settings, I have even reset my whole PC from factory reset and it still happens. My graphics card is AMD Radeon and I have the latest adrenaline graphic driver installed. Any ideas on the issue?
