Whenever I try to fullscreen a Youtube video, it just displays a black screen. It is not temporary, and the picture never loads in. I have tried the full-screen-api solution. Didn't work. I tried deleting my cache and cookies. Didn't work. I tried disabling hardware acceleration. Didn't work. I restarted my machine twice, and that didn't work And I am on the most recent version of Firefox.

They have an issue with a theater mode. Switch to normal mode.
