Recently signed for Amazon prime video. I stream from a mid '15 Macbook Pro to a HDTV via HDMI. Video stutters intermittently. The display output is set to 24Hz to match amazons 1080p24 stream. Amazon support says try another browser, so I doubt whether they will put any effort into fixing this problem if the stock browser works correctly. Got frustrated and tried Safari. The problem went away, rarely do I see a stutter after it's settled down. My playback on all the other video sites is A1 with FF. Youtube 4k works smoothly although with a lot of fan. It's a shame, I would like to use FF.

Thanks for the fast response.

Tried clearing all history; there was no change. Also tried with reducing content processes, no dice. And disabling hardware acceleration as well. No good. Maybe this is an Amazon streaming problem exclusively, because I've never had problems anywhere else.

Seems like it is an issue on Amazon's end, I'd contact them about it.
