Hi.
I suspect the problem is caused by Firefox's Gecko-based Android media stack.
Device:
Honor Magic V5 Snapdragon 8 Elite MagicOS 10.0.0.157
Software:
Firefox Android 152.0.6 uBlock Origin the only extension
Reproduction:
Open any YouTube video in Firefox. Play at 720p or higher. Pause/resume or seek. Audio and video begin intermittent stuttering. Switch to another app and return to Firefox and playback immediately returns to normal without reloading the site.
Comparison:
Chrome: works fine Vivaldi: works fine DuckDuckGo Browser: works fine
Things tested:
Hardware acceleration enabled. Battery optimization disabled. Performance mode enabled. Cache/history cleared. media.android-media-codec.preferred tested. gfx.webrender.software tested. AVC and VP9 both affected. Inner and outer displays affected. Desktop mode also affected. Firefox Nightly stutters even without seeking.
