I usually watch videos on Firefox on Stan - https://www.stan.com.au/account/login - with no problem on Debian. Just wondering if this is a fault with Firefox on FreeBSD, so I know where to go looking for the problem. Other outlets have sub par performance, also, such as YouTube, where the video comes up but plays like it's operating at one frame/5 seconds, with no sound. Thanking you for any time and trouble.

All calls on Firefox "spin around" the stereo image.

Hi there.

So as the title suggests, I have an odd issue, where audio from calls gradually pan around my headphones. It starts normally, but slowly goes towards the right ear, and eventually it starts moving back towards the center, but very muffled, as if something is simulating audio going behind my head, then left ear, then back center. This happens across different computers, OS's, audio interfaces, headphones, so the issue is highly likely to stem from within Firefox, although I'm not ruling anything out.

I've had this issue for probably years at this point, but I very rarely take calls (ie. Teams, Messenger, Discord), so it's never been the biggest issue, but now I have to regular do calls on Teams, and it's driving me slightly nuts. This does not happen while running the respective apps, but frankly, I'd rather not have to do that.

It seems to be related to WebRTC, but I can't find a specific setting that changes anything in that regard.

Firefox decided to not play any sound on my laptop, Spotify works on itself, if I open it in Firefox it doesn't. Same with YouTube and everything else. I use Artix Linux, I double-booted with Windows and it works on it, just not on Artix for some reason. I have tried to allow acces to it, even redownloaded everything, nothing worked. It's not the biggest problem, since there are subtitles, but it would be good if it worked.

Have to keep pressing keys periodically when streaming video in a Firefox tab to prevent the screen going dark. The Ubuntu Mate Power Management settings have all been configured to prevent the System from doing so, so I'm wondering if this has something to do with Firefox. As a caregiver for a disabled person otherwise without television access I would find this very helpful.

Hello All,

I noticed that while YouTube videos play with no problems (despite those videos not starting automatically if I open them in a new tab) YouTube Music does not play anything at all. If I open it on my Android Smartphone it works like a charm, but on desktop Firefox nothing.

I'm using Linux Mint 22.3 - Cinnamon 64-bit Kernel 6.17.0-19-generic Desktop Environment: Cinnamon 6.6.7

I installed the ffmpeg codec package Cleared cookies and data for YouTube I did some research on my own and enabled in about:config "media.ffmpeg.vaapi.enabled set to False" Enabled in settings Play DRM protected content Disabled using Hardware acceleration Also PulseAudio is installed

Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me understand what's happening
