Firefox for Android Support Forum

Until recently (sorry, I don't know which version I upgraded from), entering fullscreen mode when playing back video (such as YouTube) would automatically force landscape mode, even with auto-rotation disabled. Now, there seems to be no way for me to enter landscape mode while playing back a video, without enabling auto-rotation (which I otherwise always keep disabled).

I realize that the desired behavior here can be subjective, but at least it would be nice if there is/would be a way of configuring this behavior?

I'm on Android 13 (Oxygen OS 13 on OnePlus Nord 2T), with Firefox version 112.2.0 (release April 24 on the play store).

Mozilla goes to sleep after a few minutes with background addon, screen off, after a few minutes.

Also even after the update, after going fullscreen mode vide does not rotate to landscape, with screen rotation locked. everything i just described pertains to youtube. thanks for a dope browser

Just updated to latest version of Firefox for Android (ver 113). When I try to watch a YouTube video in full screen, the app suddenly closes, as if I pressed the home button (note: I say "close" rather than "crash" because when I reopen it, all the pages are still loaded). This doesn't happen every time, but it is annoying. Is there any way to fix this?

Whenever I start Firefox Android and go to a YouTube video. Autoplay is enabled by default. I always have to hit the disable autoplay to turn it off. Autoplay set to block audio and video by default in the site permissions. I tried installing the "YouTube high definition" addon which is supposed to allow you to pause autoplay but that doesn't work either. This occurs on both my phone and tablet.

Any suggestions?

Hello, I believe that my Firefox android browser updated to version 113 on May 19, 2023. Up until that point, I had no issues with getting notifications sent to my device from the web version of YouTube accessed through Firefox. I could refresh the page and leave the Firefox app and still receive notifications. Ever since the update, every time the YouTube page is reloaded (which also happens when you leave the app) the Desktop Notifications toggle in the YouTube desktop mode settings switches to off. I can switch this toggle back on, the page is refreshed, and this toggle (and only this toggle) automatically switches to off. This happens every time and I am no longer receiving notificationsto my device. The YouTube app for Android is not involved in this, as I use Firefox to access the web version YouTube as an alternative. Please provide information that can help resolve this issue and/or please make a note of this issue so it can be resolved in the future. Thank you so much.

Had a persistent issue where firefox wont display a video inside the bounds of the player For example the attached images show the same video on firefox and opera. opera shows the entire video where as firefox only shows the top left hand corner This has been an issue since the fix for youtube videos having the opposite issue was release Firefox for Android v112.1.0 Android v10

I just updated to 113.2.0. When viewing a YouTube video then going to full screen landscape mode it still intermittently minimises Firefox, and when I go back to you tube the formatting is all confused I have to close Firefox and reopen. On a Google Pixel 7 Pro phone.

youtube will still auto play even I set the auto play off, is this a bug?
