      Yes this is related to Apple's new "auto brightness" feature which also adjusts midtones in bright rooms.

      And it definitely happens on our MBA with auto-brightness "on" in settings, and it goes away otherwise (may take a reboot also?)

        I've just installed the 36.5 version, and seems that the bug is solved.

        Thanks!

              Since there are two reports of MacBook Pros not being affected, I'll add that my Mid-2014 Retina Macbook Pro running 10.11.1 IS affected. It has integrated graphics only.

                Yes in the newer betas we are seeing it anytime the Automatic Brightness feature is on (or when it's recently been turned off).

                  I am on the same setup, and with the same problem. It was so annoying I quit flux. But that was even more annoying.

                  I disabled "Automatically adjust Brightness" in Display prefs and sofar sogood.

                    Is there anything that can cause it to re-enable itself? I could've sworn I'd disabled that, but I looked again and it was enabled. Just disabled it and no flickering (so far).

                    FWIW I'm on a Late 2013 13" MBPr with 10.11.1.

                        @lorna Sorry, just remembered it was the "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light" setting I had disabled. False alarm.
