Persistent "privacy.resistFingerprinting = true" warning despite being set to false
Hi Mozilla Support Community,
I'm having an issue with Firefox where a console warning appears: "This error message will be blank when privacy.resistFingerprinting = true. If it is really necessary, please add it to the whitelist in MediaError::GetMessage:" while streaming audio on my site (https://my_radio.com, streaming from https://my.cloudfront.net/stream). The warning persists even though I've set privacy.resistFingerprinting to false in about:config.
Here’s what I’ve tried: - Set privacy.resistFingerprinting to false, cleared cache, and restarted Firefox, but the warning still shows. - The warning incorrectly indicates privacy.resistFingerprinting = true, despite my setting being false. - Tested with privacy.resistFingerprinting = true and added exemptions for my_radio.com and my_.cloudfront.net in privacy.resistFingerprinting.exemptedDomains, but it didn’t help. - Ran Firefox in Safe Mode (no add-ons), and the warning still appears. - This doesn’t affect audio playback but prevents seeing the full MediaError.message (e.g., object { code: 1, message: "" }), which makes debugging stream issues difficult.
Is this a known privacy/security setting issue? How can I stop this warning or see the full error message with privacy.resistFingerprinting set to false? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

By the way, I'm using Firefox Browser version 138.0.1 (64-bit) on Windows 11 Pro v 24H2 build 26100.3775
