Every time a youtube video is placed on landscape mode on the firefox app of my android phone it becomes a single blurred image with the audio playing as normal.

Youtube seems to work fine on other browsers and I have tried all basic fixes, like deleting cache/data/reinstalling app etc. Appreciate any help.

Edit. Okay I managed to fix the issue so I'm adding the solution here in case anyone runs into this problem. Apparantly youtube playback decided to enable "ambient mode", a feature I didn't even know existed and seems to not play well with a phones resolution.

Just click the settings gear while the video is playing in landscape (mine is on the top right) and disable the "Ambient mode" feature.

Hope this helps.

I ran into an issue with logging into the gamepass app when I had Firefox as my default. The app pulls up a Microsoft login page in a powered by Firefox window. I can get most of the way through but then it endlessly loads and eventually fails. I have this issue with other apps where I have to login with the popup browser window. Using other browsers like chrome have no problem. This is on my Samsung zflip 5. Is this normal for Samsung? I only just switched from a Pixel.
