Android üçün Firefox Community Forum

There are multiple audio tracks coming from the video playing on X. The sound of the same video is repeating. The sounds of the same video are all jumbled together.

I have no idea what's causing this, but recently video playback on every website keeps breaking. I have to go into my phone's settings and delete the cache from there, or uninstall and reinstall Firefox completely to fix it. But it only fixes it temporarily. Everything else seems to work fine, but video players just... don't work at all after a while.

I have always blocked embedded videos from playing like in this article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/playing-videos-firefox-android But more and more sites are allowing videos to play. I have also disabled DRM content. I also use U-block

Yesterday I just use YouTube website on my official firefox app for mobile and it works fine. But today when I try to look for a specific video when the clips reach 1 min it starting to hang and error... at first I thought it's just the content so I try other one still same after 1 min it get hang, so I try to remove some of the extension I have and disable them all and try again but still after 1 min it stop, so I try it on beta the same video same website I sync my firefoxes browser with one account, I also try it on nightly and also the video play smoothly and its finish it same with beta, but the official seems to have a problem... my official firefox apps is fully updated... do you think i should keep using he beta and nightly while the official is kinda on a bugs error..., I hope mozilla solve that fast.. keep up the good work

This browser is slow in browsing compared to the Chromium engine on low-end Android devices. Also, this browser doesn't have a special YouTube feature to "swipe from the top" (swipe down) to see the video in Portrait Fullscreen mode (one video in fullscreen in portrait mode, not landscape). This removes the video suggestions shown below the main video to maintain high focus on the current video. Brave has this feature; that's why I use the Brave browser to replace YouTube Premium. And I use Firefox with uBlock Origin to remove all ads from Facebook only. So in short, I use Firefox to browse Facebook and I use the Brave browser to watch YouTube. (You might wonder why I don't use Brave to browse Facebook? Brave's built-in ad blocker is weaker than uBlock Origin, which can't remove all Facebook ads even in aggressive mode. That's why I use Firefox for Facebook). But I want everything in Firefox Android. Please focus on popular platforms like Facebook and YouTube, so that people think that we don't need to buy Premium; we can use Firefox with the uBlock Origin extension without buying Premium for removing ads.

Hello I switched from Chrome to Firefox two months ago. I noticed from the beginning of using it that it causes a lot of problems playing videos. I tried playing YouTube and Facebook videos, but many times they keep loading but don't play. I confirmed that my internet was fine and even when testing with ad blockers like uBlock turned off, it sometimes failed to play the video. The problem is really annoying for a user, please fix it.

Firefox android: Playback issues on latest version 14-03-2026

I mean couple of patches ago, background playback worked just fine. Even on screen shut-off and making easier to listen to Podcasts.

Now, it's back to where it just shuts off if screen is no longer active. The hatred edition of active user screen playback nobody needs.

This is why using Firefox on Android is nuisance. YOU DON'T HAVE THESE SETTINGS ACCESSIBLE.

Hello !

Before v147 on Android I was able to play a video on YouTube and then shut my screen and the audio would still play and it was amazing but I can't seem to do it anymore since a week or so :/ is it just me ? Thank you

Hello! I've recently been having some issues getting videos to play in the background from Firefox's audio notification media player feature. I very frequently use YouTube in the Firefox browser so that I can then exit the browser and still play the audio of a video via the media player, but last night that media player stopped working for me. When I close the Firefox app, I still get the notification as usual, but tapping the "play" button achieves absolutely nothing. I've tried to search the issue and test some fixes myself, but nothing has worked so far. The fixes I've tried include:

• Activated "Allow video and audio" in the Firefox Autoplay setting
• Made sure autoplay was allowed in the YouTube browser tab
• Tried to play the audio while connected to wi-fi and while on data
• Checked for updates to my phone, YouTube, and Firefox (I am up to date)
• Deployed the old "turn it off and turn it back on again" fix, both in Firefox (closing all tabs and re-opening), and for my phone (shut it down and restarted it).

None of the settings for the media player or general notifications for Firefox seem to govern this issue, so I'm bringing it here. Thank you for taking the time to read through all of this. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me! (I've included a photo of the notification bar for extra reference)

I am using Firefox on android and since the most recent update the app will no longer let me play videos in the background, in another tab or with the screen locked.
