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!
