Unexplainable difference between preview and snapshot #3463

Description

@rmichelena

I set to watch a website with playwright, and xpath selector.
(in this case: https://www.ungm.org/Shared/KnowledgeCenter/Pages/ICAO
and .element-containing-all-view-documents)

version 0.50.16 but this keeps happening since whatever version was there mid-june I believe...
using docker image ghcr.io/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io + dgtlmoon/sockpuppetbrowser:latest
on a VPS running Ubuntu

So if I look at the Preview in "Edit -> Filters and Triggers" it looks fine.
But the snapshot shows a totally different thing, it kind of captures only partially.
If I create a new watch with same parameters, it'd seem the first time it captures correctly.
But from then on, every check will only capture partial ; or al least is what the "current snapshot" shows.
I did try increasing dwell time to 30 seconds, even 1 minute, but it doesn't make a difference

shared config:
https://changedetection.io/share/1yEnnL0O-2Aa

So in all my other watches, the "Preview" matches the snapshot.
But in this one it doesn't, and then the diff also does not work as it should, because it'd seem for some reason the capture is failing after the very first time, even though the preview keeps looking fine every time.

Screenshots attached.
