Firefox Community Forum

I am using Firefox on gnome desktop on the PureOS variant of Debian. About three days ago, I went to listen to my Spotify playlist on Firefox, not through the Spotify app. I had no sound, checked my system settings and turned the volume for Firefox from zero back up to normal. The rest of the song played, but when the next song came on, again no sound. I watched the sound settings and when the song finishes, Firefox disappears from the sound settings list. When the next song starts, Firefox is back in the list but volume is set back to zero. I suspect this may be something in gnome, but I thought I would check here in case anyone else is seeing this issue. Thanks so much for any help or at least a shoulder to cry on :D

Having issues with my Bluetooth AirPods and sound in Firefox. The problem being there is no sound when the device is connected and watching a YouTube video for instance. Things went wonky after the recent update to 133.0.3. At first there was no sound period. Then somehow, not even sure how, I saw that Firefox was muted in Windows (11 Pro) settings. That's a mystery unto itself since I'd never previously gone to that area. Now that I have volume through external speakers working, audio through AirPods doesn't. Everything works fine using Edge and audio from music. I know the device is connected and when that is, it's the default for where sound comes from. Used the test thing and yup there is audio. Is there something I'm missing? There must be but I can't figure out what it is. Hopefully someone reading this can point me in the right direction of resolving this issue. Thank you in advance.

For the past several days I have not had any sound when linked to video from news email and others. The sound icon on the face of the video is completely at fullest. I am 88 years old and have very limited digital skills. I have not been able to understand how to restore the sound. Don't understand why or how this happened. Please help. Susan J Morris

I can select the video on the thumbnail and then the thumbnail says playing but nothing is happening. No video and no audio. Videos on all other sites work normally

I use eBird extensively. When I try to play the audio (with sonograms), I get a message that says "We are still processing this file. Try again later". These files perform well on my Android phone, so I know it it is not eBird's glitch. I am confused about the setting options on Firefox that I need to set. These files are usually .wav format. I have tried to open a ticket with eBird, but have not had a response. Can you guide me? Thanks.

Make amazon product video work on firefox. I am using fedora 43 kde plasma recently updated. I have a Nvidia video card RTX 5060 ti and using propriety Nvidia drivers Video starts and then stops or after turning off hardware accelaration ran intermitantly then stops. Sometimes telling me the video file is corrupted

I am using Pop OS. Videos are not playing in firefox. In youtube it shows loading infinitly. In reddit all videos become green. I tried playing a downloaded video it also become green. These are only happening in integrated mode. If I use hybrid graphics mode all works good. I attached the about:support page and about:config page.

about:config page link about:support page

These files are taken in integrated graphics mode.

My account on thinkific is cookingasmedicine.thinkific.com When I go to the "course" and click on a video whether in my class or one I am taking, the videos will NOT play. I have been talking with Thinkific and we've gone through all the videos of yours and theirs - the settings, checked my updates and nothing works. I have no trouble on my laptop or my Iphone using firefox on laptop just on my desktop LENOVO.

I checked my set up that is on the laptop and made it exactly the same on my desktop but STILL to no avail. The videos will simply NOT play!

Would you please help me?

I have Windows 10 and currently have auto updates so I am up to date with your updates. I just can't imagine what it could be that's stopping the videos from playing? They played perfectly for three years! I have not put any new apps or programs on my computer either.

Thank you, Claire

Firefox will not play video from a website. If I save the video, it is a MP4 file. Windows Media Player and VLC will play the video file. But the browser shows the message: "No video with supported format and MIME type found."

Chrome and Edge will play this video correctly in their browsers. Firefox will not play the video on 3 different computers, and even when a different user account is involved (without Firefox sync).

The evidence seems to point at firefox. The website is a Wordpress site.

Is it possible that the website is the problem? If so, why do Edge and Chrome work?

I uninstalled Firefox (latest version) and reinstalled it. Not fixed.

My windows updates are current, as are Dell updates.

This is stumping me. I hope someone can help.

Since I updated to Firefox 141.02 I have not been able to play videos on Paramount+ or Netflix. I get an error on the top that says the Widevine plugin has crashed on both streaming services. I have checked that the plugin is on and there are no updates. I am on Ubuntu 24.04. Video on YouTube plays as normal

Whenever I try to watch a video, on any website, it pixelates so bad that it's just unwatchable. Do I have a setting wrong that could fix this? Watching the same video on different browsers (edge, chrome) works fine. I've attached an image to show what I'm getting. Occasionally, it will work just fine but if I pause the video to come back to it, it goes back to this at some point.

I'm running on windows 11 and Firefox Version 134.0.2 (64-bit)

Hi,

I have been having this weird issue that I believe is being caused by firefox as no other internet browser has the same issue. When I'm playing music on spotify and I open firefox the sound goes quite bu the audio is still playing on spotify . One work around I have found is to take on of the tabs and use it to open a new window and the put it back with the others and the sound comes back again. I lost and need help as this is making it hard to want to use firefox which I have been a user of since it first came out.
