Hi I can't get to find where can I change edit the auto-fill data. It looks I misspelled my email, so whenever i try to write in a form, i got 2 options the good one and the wrong one. I tried to search already and the two solutions I've found are: 1) going to Settings>privacy and Security> Forms and Auto-fill and change it from there, but there is no Forms and Auto-fill part, even searching in the settings search-box doesn't give any results. and 2) In the box I want to write my email select the wrong one with the down arrow key and the delete or shift/delete from the keyboard. Neither of this solutions worked. Any suggestions?

I've been noticing that Firefox does not play nice with the newest drivers with my integrated graphics (Intel Iris XE, CPU 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1155G7 @ 2.50GHz 2.50 GHz), and while it's been getting better (Before it made videos play at 1fps, now it just makes the youtube hud laggy), it is still rather concerning. weirdly the ESR version of firefox which i'm using currently is not having the issues at all though. This is more me checking to see if i'm alone in this situation or not. Currently using the December 2022 drivers and while it seems to be playing nice so far, this will become an issue sooner or later again.

Today i started having audio desync/lag issues on YouTube. Meaning that the audio lags behind the video for about 1 second, which makes watching videos just an awful experience. I thought that maybe this was a YouTube issue, so i went to a Twitch Steam and i had the same issue (Just slightly less noticeable, but still annoying, about half a second or so of delay).

Then i thought that maybe one of my addons got an update or that it's a cache issue or smth, so i cleared the cache and started Firefox in safe mode, went to YouTube and the audio lag was still present.

The "lag" i mean is that when the video starts, the video itself starts immediately, but it takes about 1 second for the audio to start. When i pause the video, the video itself pauses immediately, but the audio keeps going for that 1 second, when i continue playing the video, the video starts immediately again, but the audio only starts after that 1 second, which desyncs it from the video.

Recently, I got a new PC from my parents, and it's overall pretty good. However, I realized that Youtube sometimes slows down a video and messes up/distorts the audio while it's playing. I have never had this issue before on my old computer. These slow downs would occur in intervals of around a couple days to maybe a week at most. I have no idea what's going on and a quick Google search doesn't give me my exact issue. I've tried changing browser.sessionstore.interval to a different value but it didn't help. Does anybody know what's going on?

Is it possible to sync and open all tabs in the same order as on the machine the sync is performed with?

Now the synced tabs are in a sidebar and in an order that is probably based on usage. Last clicked tab on top and so on. I would prefer the same order; this makes it easier to find and use a tab when having a lot of tabs opened. And also preferably all tabs opened on top of the browser, instead of in the sidebar.

Kind Regards, Kees

I've got a problem switching from chrome, when I try to mark text of several pages and drag to the bottom of the page it's incredibly slow and laggy. Is there any way to solve this?

Like if you try to copy 3 pages of text you drag the cursor whilst holding left click to the bottom of the screen to reach the last page. It's faster if you actively pull down to go fast but I have to do that a lot for like hours and it's very tedious.

I've got a problem about rendering `video` with `requestAnimationFrame`. It seems right and quick on Chrome ,but unresponsive and flashing at FF.

 My code looks like this (minified):

``` $video.src = "/test.mp4"; $video.play(); var context = $canvas.getContext("2d"); function render() {

 context.drawImage(video, 0, 0);
 requestAnimationFrame(render);

} render(); ```

 I think this might be the most classical way to render videos to canvas2d, and it runs well on Chrome. 
 After that, I've justified `gfx.canvas.accelerated` to `true` but nothing changed.
 Is there any way for FF to be better on this way?

I cannot access certain features of Amazon Seller on Firefox. This problem started several weeks ago. Amazon seller works fine on Chrome and Microsoft Edge.

It seems to be an issue with Amazon Seller website only.

Hi,

I'm on an 8 core, i7 Intel system - 3.6ghz - with 32gb RAM. For some reason, Firefox is being weird. I'm not sure when it got this bad, but its been a bit odd for a while (hearing the computer fan coming on more, and looking at task manager it shows FF as the culprit running at high RAM and CPU)

See an example attached. It has almost 10gb of the RAM going to it, with over 6gb on one process (I think it even got up to 7.5gb at one point, before going back down).

So what could be causing it? I've got a few extensions:

Dashlane No-Cache: No store for selected hosts Web Developer

I have 6 pinned tabs - nothing fancy, just my Amazon seller page, couple of webmail portals (Roundcube) and a few others. Then currently a couple of extra non-pinned tabs

As I'm writing this, the whole browser keeps locking up as I type - and then catches up. Something is not right :/

Any suggestions on where to look? I'm not too keep on starting a "new profile", as it'll lose all my history that I use on a daily basis for my work :(

Thanks

Andy
