I have tried everything. I've gone into the permissions, I have it set that everything is allowed. I reset and forgot the sites multiple times, zoom and Google Meets, and when I reload still the same issue. It says I do not have a camera. The camera works for both Edge and the camera app on my laptop. I even checked my settings on my laptop, and Firefox has permission to access my camera. However, in the camera request history, it does not show that Firefox asked for access to my camera. It also says the last time it accessed my camera was last year, but I have been trying to get it to work this entire time. I am updated with Windows 11 and the latest update of Firefox. How do I fix this? Is it an issue with Firefox or Windows?

Hello

For a while I have been selecting wall street journal articles and then clicking "listen".

A few weeks ago this stopped working on one computer a fairly new Lenovo running Windows 11. Currently running firefox 133.0.3. When I click "listen" on any article, nothing happens. Clicking "listen" on another Windows-11 computer on the same article does work, so apparently something is wrong with the settings on this one computer. Any suggestions please?

thanks

Ben

Windows 11 Pro - Dell XPS8940 desktop - i9

Firefox will not play video from a website. If I save the video, it is a MP4 file. Windows Media Player and VLC will play the video file. But the browser shows the message: "No video with supported format and MIME type found."

Chrome and Edge will play this video correctly in their browsers. Firefox will not play the video on 3 different computers, and even when a different user account is involved (without Firefox sync).

The evidence seems to point at firefox. The website is a Wordpress site.

Is it possible that the website is the problem? If so, why do Edge and Chrome work?

I uninstalled Firefox (latest version) and reinstalled it. Not fixed.

My windows updates are current, as are Dell updates.

This is stumping me. I hope someone can help.

Following a recent update of my bios (AMD Ryzen) of my PC the on-board sound system failed. I chased down the issue, got a sound card to circumvent the on-board circuits, and had sound once again but for my FireFox (Ver 133.0.3, on Windows 11 Home, Ver 10.0.22631 Build 22631). Testing with alternate browsers (Edge, Opera) the sound works, as do my downloaded games and music but no joy with FireFox.

My question: Is this a known issue being addressed for a future update or are my circumstances an outlier issue?

Hello. For a while now I have been using the picture-in-picture feature to play a video in the corner while using other applications. It has been a great help as I have a single monitor.

Unfortunately, I have recently been encountering a severe issue with the feature over the last week. When attempting to use picture-in-picture while my computer is running a videogame (through Steam) my entire system will freeze. The audio still plays as normal, but the image is frozen and the system is unresponsive until I force a shutdown and reboot.

Any help at all in with this issue would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Firefox just keeps getting slower and less responsive. I've cleared the history etc and run my Avast cleanup premium which helped a little, but the other browsers just put it to shame. I hate to switch because I love the user interface, but............ its just frustrating. Windows 11 latest updates.
