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?

Hello,

I recently updated my Firefox browser to the latest version, 138.0.1 (64-bit), on Windows.

After the update, I noticed that when playing videos in fullscreen mode (for example, on YouTube or other video websites), the Windows taskbar (the bar at the bottom of the screen with the Start menu icon) does not hide automatically. This is affecting my fullscreen viewing experience.

Before updating to version 138.0.1, the Windows taskbar would hide correctly when entering fullscreen video.

I was wondering if anyone else has encountered a similar issue with the Windows taskbar not hiding, or if there are any suggested solutions to help resolve this problem.

Thank you for your help!

Maybe after update, or i dont know why, but now. when youtube (or any other videoplayer) in fullscreen - taskbar menu is visible (Is on topscreen). In google chrome problem is not repeats. I'm using StartAllBack app for classic start menu, but till that day all was fine. I checked on two devices with firefox - the same problem (StartAllBack or windows version wasnt cahnged). Windows 11 24H2

so i use ome tv on Firefox using user agent switcher EXTENSION. but when i connect to ome tv i cant flip the camera option in the down left it wont flip and it lags when connecting with other people please fix or help

When I play a video with the web player in Firefox that has AC3 audio, I get no sound.

Doing some research it looks like AC3 used to be patented so I assume that is why it isn't included in Firefox but since March 20, 2017 the patent for AC3 has expired so I'd think it's now OK to include in Firefox.

The same video works in Edge and Chrome.

I'm looking for a solution to an annoying bug in Firefox on Windows 11. The taskbar won't hide when I go into fullscreen on videos (e.g. YouTube).

The issue is directly tied to hardware acceleration.

This doesn't happen in Chrome, and I've already tried reinstalling Firefox and updating all my drivers and Windows. Does anyone know of a fix for this bug?

If I browse to http://hackgreensdr.org:8901/m.html The mobile version of the venerable Hack Green WebSDR. I cannot get any sound. This is the whole purpose of this! Note this is a insecure HTTP Not HTTPS website. Need to allow HTML5 I am very surprised there are not lots of request for this.

Good day, I have Firefox 138.0.4 running on Windowx 11 24H2. PC details as follows: CPU = Ryzen 5 2400G RAM = 32GB GPU = RTX 3060Ti 8GB Connection is 50/25Mbps fibre connection

My issue is that when watching F1 from the following site: https://f1tv.formula1.com/, after some time (it differs in how long it takes to manifest), the stream starts to stutter. Note, it is NOT buffering, it is like the stream gets "stuck" or freezes for an instant then continues. The "freeze" then becomes more frequent and sometimes even lasts for about 2 seconds before resuming. The most important fact about all this is that this does NOT happen when using Google Chrome, hence my suspicion that it is somehow related to Firefox specifically. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this and/or how to fix it, please?

Trying to watch YouTube playlists but Firefox interrupts and displays a pop-up, stating that playback has been Paused. Why does it keep pausing?! I want it to play it on loop and I even tell YouTube to put it on loop. I can't find anything in settings that will allow me to stop Firefox from pausing my playback.

I am using Latest version of Firefox (139.0.1 - 64 Bit). I have tried the "hardware acceleration" option on/off and Safe Mode as well. None of it can make Prime Video, Amazon Music or Spotify work! Surprisingly, the podcasts work in Amazon music but not the songs.

I am able to use these in Chrome.

Thanks in advance for the possible resolution steps!

bold text It is not possible to watch videos in 1080p since the moment I installed the latest update. I have to reduce to 720 or 480 to get smooth motion. Running Windows 10. How can I fix this?

Sometimes, when I try to watch a youtube video, it will not play and sometimes while the video plays, it suddenly turns green and my RAM usage climbs to 100% I cannot refresh the page and have to restart Firefox, but it can still happen again. My graphics drivers are also up to date, so I'm not sure what the issue is.

Hallo everyone,

after many hours of Google search and trying many changes in the "about:config" section im done with things to try so my last chance is here.

The problem i have is that videos dont play if i mouseover the firefox window or tab i.E. on the windows taskbar. The video will only start to play if i click on the window/tab and that window/tab is the "active" one im looking at.

It worked fine before but some firefox update f***ed this up (and yes the official firefox updates are the only thing that changed), no i dont know which update it was because i didnt recognize the problem right away.

The autoplay option is set to allow media and audio.

The weird thing is that when i open a video in the vlc player and do the mouseover, everything works just fine. So my conclusion is that some setting was messed up on the new firefox version.

Some data of my pc, everything is updated: - Windows 11 Pro - CPU is AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D 3,4GHz - GPU is AMD Radeon RX 7900XT - RAM is 32GB DDR4 CL16 - Internet is wired connection with 250K speed - Firefox Version is 137.0.1

Sorry for my bad english and thank you in advance.

Some videos on X don't play. They show the continuous circle loading. Copy that video link and load in private browser and it plays normally. How do I find out what is keeping them from playing in the normal browser. I tried disabling all extensions. No change. Any ideas I can try?
