I need to embed video using the <embed> tag rather than the <video> tag. Other browsers support this, but Firefox doesn't.
For example, this code:
<figure>
<embed src="myvid.mp4">
<figcaption>
myvid
</figcaption>
</figure>
works in Chrome. Firefox however ignores the embed source and only prints the content of the <figcaption> tag.
What's going on here? Does Firefox not support video in <embed> tags?

If I open a new tab (firefox default) and start typing in the search box, suggestions and the "Change Search settings" box opens underneath, pressing enter sometimes gives me the about:preferences#search page. I don't need or want this feature but it seems that the default pages are protected, I can't use Stylus to remove the feature which is new for the past few months.

TLS Handshake timeout on startup only. But back to normal after initial hang.

This issue started after running the latest batch of Windows updates a few weeks ago. When I load my browser, my homepage (google) fails to load as the TLS handshake takes forever. After it times out in about 5-10 seconds, I can go to any website without any lag or delays. The TLS issue NEVER happens again. It only happens when I first load the browser.
Deleting my profile did nothing. Reinstalling firefox did nothing. Chrome works completely fine with no lag.
I'm kind of stumped what could be causing this.

What happens is that it tries to load, comes up with message saying it has trouble trying to find the address before the browser stops and crashes after a few seconds. I've tried clearing cookies, disabled add-ons, turning on/off hardware acceleration and updating Firefox but nothing worked. Every other site loads fine but this one doesn't.

I have been using Firefox since inception. Personally, I loath update time cos it normally means change - the only change i could notice this time (70.0) was the logo. Anyway, the desktop pc updated fine but when i came to use my laptop at the weekend Firefox was nowhere to be found and wouldn't respond to any icon clicks and in Windows control panel 'Programs & features' suggested that it may have been uninstalled. Frustrated, i decided to fully uninstal and download and re-install afreash. However, after doubleclicking the .exe Firefox install file the process stalls after unpacking saying "You may not have the necessary permissions to use all the features of the program you are about to run. You may run this program as a different user or continue to run the program as the current user." The two options are; run as current user or run as administrator (with associated password field). Choosing the first option then stalls the instal process. Choosing the second option there is a login or password conflict, even though the current user 'is' the administrator account. Help required please.

Hello's I enabled DoH and Firefox documentation states that "to determine whether to use/bypass the enabled DoH option, Firefox checks amongst other things whether the preference security.enterprise_roots.enabled is set to true. This preference is set to true and locked in my browser, and my device is not corporate controlled. Further investigating I found a config file in the /defaults/pref folder that is added by Bitdefender my anti-virus product. Two questions: With this setting set to True, does that mean that Firefox will ignore the enabled DoH and use my configured resolvers? How can I prevent my anti-virus product from modifying this setting? I have a support question out to them but they are dragging their feet with their response. Thanks, sky.

I am having several gmail inboxes pinned to my FF browser as I need to monitor/work with them. I am logged in with several accounts therefore. Since one of the latest updates to FF it constantly shows on the top-right of nearly every google sheet (most are shared not my own) "you are currently logged in as xxx" Yes I know that I do not need that reminder so how do I get rid of that pop up? I am getting fed up with clicking ok all the time! Thanks for any tips.

Hello -- Weird thing, here. I'm trying to help a friend of mine. Recently Firefox on his Windows 10 laptop will not open google as his home page. When he opens Firefox the status bar indicates it's attempting a TLS handshake with google but after many, many seconds a blank page appears. I have made sure it's set as his home page and have done a refresh on Firefox. What's weird (to me, anyway) is that I can set any other page as his home page and it will open up directly into that page. Not google.
I'm guessing an update broke it but am not there daily. Please let me know what other specifics are needed to help me solve this for him.
TIA.

Window 7 sp1 I checked '%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\updates' and the folder is EMPTY. I was on v67.0.x and it would have updated to the brand new v70. Tried installing v68.0.2I had the installer for and it opened in a new window without my favorites, saved logons, etc. I clicked on the firefox icon pinned to the lower taskbar and it opened v68.0.2 with all my favorites, logons, etc. Only seems to be one firefox application in Program Files. I Pasted 'about:profiles' into both and attached is the screen grab. Need to endup running v68.0.2 or v69 but NOT the just released v70. Why does an install or update always change my preferences to automatically install updates??
Since updating Firefox shows adverts.
