Prevent Picture-in-Picture video from pausing when viewport scrolls?

When a video is popped out, in PiP mode, and the "owning" page is scrolled such that the video "origin" scrolls off the viewport, the PiP video pauses. If the video is started again, and the page is scrolled more, it will re-pause.

This seems to be a Firefox behaviour and not a site-specific one.

Is there a setting to keep the video to continue playing?

This would be helpful on Twitter/X, for example, when scrolling the timeline with a PiP playing from a tweet.

Interacting With / Clicking On / Click On Any Extension Crashes Linux Firefox | 147.0.2 (64-bit) Debian 12 Gnome Wayland

NB - For the past half a year I have to sometimes right click to interact with them, anyway

Effectively, I will interact with the extension at the most basic, normal level on something that has interactive elements like a dropdown menu, or basic options.

I will click / right click on the icon and the highlight will appear, then that's it ... the browser then crashes and does not recover. :(

What's worse is that I have to Force Quit and when I restart there is no crash report to send to Moz.

I am just wondering if other Linux users have experienced similar issues.

The attached image is taken at the moment before the 'Force Quit' dialogue opens up in Debian 12 Gnome (Wayland) ...



I have Hardware Acceleration on.

I am about to start testing with it off, but I work from the browser, and do not want performance compromises. So that is (at best) a work-around, and certainly is not a fix.

I'm on version 147.0.2 (64-bit) which would appear to be from the Mozilla Firefox Debian Package mozilla-deb - 1.0 install/repo/whatever ... and the PC specs are: Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10850H CPU @ 2.70GHz Memory: 32705MB (11893MB used) Resolution: 7680x2358 pixels OpenGL Renderer: Quadro RTX 3000/PCIe/SSE2

These are my media. prefs ... but ... I doubt that it is relevant: media.ffmpeg.allow-openh264 true media.ffmpeg.customized-buffer-allocation true media.ffmpeg.disable-software-fallback false media.ffmpeg.enabled true media.ffmpeg.encoder.cpu-used 7 media.ffmpeg.encoder.enabled true media.ffmpeg.encoder.quantizer-max 35 media.ffmpeg.encoder.quantizer-min 10 media.ffmpeg.vaapi.force-surface-zero-copy 2

A few weeks I started having trouble accessing the aa.com website. I would get this message:

Access Denied You don't have permission to access "http://www.aa.com/" on this server.

I can access without issue on Edge and Chrome, but they aren't my preferred browsers. And if I use google to directly go to a specific page within the site, such a the technical support page, I can access that, and log in from there.

I tried all of the typical trouble shooting steps, like clearing cache and cookies. None of that helped.

Then today I decided to pull out my laptop and see if I could access aa.com from there. I could, with no issues.

So, this is somehow related to Firefox, but deeper than just the browser itself. But I'm at a loss as what to check next to correct this isue.

Not sure if it's related, but the automated guesses this page makes about my browser and operating system stated that I'm on Windows 10. This computer uses Windows 11, and it came installed with Windows 11.
