Firefox just introduced a cool feature that lets us set custom wallpapers on the home screen—love it! But whenever I try using pictures from my personal library, they don’t fit properly and end up getting cropped. Resizing doesn’t help either, since making the image smaller just ruins the quality.

So, is there a specific format I should be using? Like, does it need to be JPEG only, or will any file type work? And if any format is fine, what’s the ideal one for the best results? I couldn’t find anything in the settings or help pages about this.

Many web sites have a dark colored box around selections, such as an option to show orders. They are currently shown in purple, which is almost impossible to see against the black. I've played around with the contrast and font settings, but haven't found a way to solve the issue--right now I'm just living with it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a problem. When watching videos on YouTube, especially in 4K, it starts to freeze, and the loading screen stays on indefinitely. The same thing happens when you fast-forward or rewind the video. Switching the video to 1440p or 1080p helps, but over time, even at 1080p, it starts to freeze. but if I switch back to 4K, everything works fine, but only temporarily or until I fast-forward it.

I can provide browser data files. I'll say right away that I've tried a lot of things, and even everything that ChatGPT recommended didn't help. I tried changing the about:config settings related to the video player and codecs.

The only thing that helped was installing a plugin (h264ify by erkserkserks) that disables av1, and in that case the video works fine, BUT only at 1080p, which doesn't suit me, as I would like to watch videos in high quality.

If I disable hardware acceleration so that videos are rendered on the processor, then everything works fine and everything runs smoothly, except that the processor is loaded at 60%. This may be a solution to the problem, but I would like to figure it out and solve it completely, rather than looking for a compromise.

Motherboard: ASRock B850M Pro-A (BIOS date 02/21/2025, DMI BIOS version 3.20) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 8400F 6-Core Processor RAM: Crucial CP16G60C36U5B (Crucial 2x16 - 32GB) Video card: NVIDIA GeForce MSI RTX 3080 Ventus 3X OC LHR (MS-V389) (Driver version: 32.0.15.7652, Development date: May 14, 2025, DirectX version: 12 (FL 12.1)) Video card driver 576.52, May 19, 2025 The entire system and browser are installed on an M.2 NVMe CT1000P3PSSD8 SSD (Crucial P3 Plus 1TB PCIe 4.0 x4) (there are also other drives) (2 monitors 1440p) Windows 11 Pro If any data is required, I can provide it. All drivers and everything else are installed in the latest version (unless new ones have been released or it has not updated itself). All Visual C++ and Windows components are installed, I don't think there is a problem with them.

The problem only occurs in the Mozilla browser; there are no problems in any other browsers. I also noticed that on some websites where I watch movies, there is a problem with the video. Unlike YouTube, they load normally, but in dynamic scenes, the image breaks up, similar to the image breakup in games when vertical synchronization is turned off. That is, the video is divided into two parts, and one of them lags behind by a fraction of a second. I tried resetting the browser settings, but it didn't help. Everything works fine on my MacBook and in other browsers and devices, so it's not related to the internet.

Please help me figure this out and solve the problem because I've already tried everything, and I don't want to switch to another browser because I've been using Mozilla for over 15 years. Also, if you need any information or a detailed explanation, I can show you or even record a video. Everything worked fine on Windows 10 on the same system, but Windows 11 is not running as smoothly. (To clarify, this is a clean system; I did a complete clean install of Windows 11, although when I upgraded from 10 to 11, everything seemed to work fine).

I would be grateful for any help.

So, my problem is with HW acceleration in FF. Basically:

If its enabled: It causes graphical artifacts in videos [See screenshot]. If its disabled: It brings screen tear in to videos and autoscroll [Like if Vsync is disabled in games].

I tried safe mode, I tried reinstall of FF, I tried disabling and enabling extensions. I tried to set Vsync on in Nvidia control panel... the only thing that impact those bugs is HW acceleration in FF.

My drivers are up to date, my browser is up to date, yet there is such trouble.

Any ideas or solutions?

I just finished using my printer. When I came back to print something else, it wouldn't print. Got this error code.

The page isn’t redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never be completed.

This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.

I did what it said: checked the connections, etc. I even changed out the printer with another one. Same problem.
