एंड्रॉयड के लिए Firefox Community Forum

In Firefox on Android, horizontal YouTube videos display incorrectly in fullscreen—the top of the video is cut off, and a large empty gray space appears at the bottom, while vertical videos work normally.

I have a pixel 6 phone (android) Before the last update to my phone I was able to use the firefox desktop site for WJZZ.com. This is a jazz station that streams music.

The station would play continuously on my phone even after the screen locked. NOW it doesn't.

I've been searching periodically for over a month to figure out what changed, why and how to fix it.

can someone PLEASE help me?!?!?!

I don't use the YouTube app, I prefer to use it via the website. When I do, I usually watch @ 1.25x speed, however, any time I leave the tab, on returning, playback speed reverts to normal time (always) &, sometimes, playback speed indicator will still be @ my selected speed

I see a lot that mozilla can't load videos not matter the quality video, or the device or the internet (literally is happening even on my pc gaming) and it's just 8 or 10 seconds when the video starts, not the slower thing that YouTube put to "combat" ad blockers. Is the reproduction of the video itself (like half of the video or 30 seconds, no black screen at all)

so I'm listening to a video and it just cuts out when I visit a site and there's no option to go full screen in firefox app I do not want the video cut out that I'm listening to and copy and paste is not working

Recently (perhaps the last week) I've had an issue where playing a youtube video in fullscreen doesn't fill the screen, instead having significant letterboxing on sides and bottom, in addition to the small amount caused by 18:9 screen. Can't find setting to fix, tried reinstalling and using without account/extensions.

I am using Android 15 on Nokia.

When I switch tabs, the media playback on YouTube stops.

The playback also stops when I lock the screen, even though I am on the YouTube tab. Also, the media player doesn't show on the screen most of the times. Even if it shows, pressing the play button doesn't play the media.

Tried all solutions on the internet, with all settings in place. Only this add-on helped https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/playback-helper-youtube-vimeo/

I was hoping there will be a native fix, than an add-on.

Issue was reported few years back, same as below one https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1412369

For the past.. month I would say, any time I try to use Youtube on my Firefox Browser it nearly always switches over to landscape mode after watching a video. It doesn't matter whether my phone screen's auto rotate is on or off it still does it. Yes. I already tried to turn my auto rotate on to switch it back to potrait mode, it still won't work. The only solution I currently have is closing Youtube all together from my Browser, which really REALLY sucks!!

Can someone PLEASE look into the glitch?!

YouTube video takes more time than crome to load and YouTube home page feels very laggy and unresponsive. Background play works for 2-3 minutes than it stops. I am not using battery saver. Overall browsing experience feels a bit Cluttered

From time to time, when while playing YouTube Premium videos in Firefox on my Android Galaxy S26 (same was on S24 before for years) I connect the phone to Android Auto of my Ford Mustang 2024 with USB cable, the playback stops. After that I still can browse the web, but can not play any video until I twice in a row kill and restart the Firefox (loosing all private pages, etc). Disconnect/reconnect of the cable does not help. There are no any errors reported when it happen. It looks as some connectivity or YouTube problem, except the moment I restart Firefox twice everything goes back to normal. Since during that connection the audio is getting redirected to the car speakers, I suspect the problem may be audio-related, but I have no specific evidences. Also since car's multimedia is usually still booting at the time, it takes Android Auto several seconds to start, and I guess some random delays and/or transient errors might happen during that period, that I guess may be not handled properly by Firefox, making it leak some critical resources.

Sometimes (extremely rare) I experience similar video hangs just when switching between YouTube videos without any connectivity changes, but that may be some different issue.

Bonjour, Les vidéos du site Eurosport ne sont pas lues. Affichage d'un message "Une erreur est survenue, merci de recommencer". Le problème n'est pas résolu par la désactivation de Ghostery ni via les paramètres des sites ni après effacement du cache.

Since today all embedded videos online are turned upside down. Time, controls and subtitles are still fine though. And also have an issue scrolling websites. Scrolling works just fine as long as i start scrolling when nothing is moving. If the screen is already scrolling slowly and i start to scroll more the screen freezes until a second or do after i let go.

Tried restarting phone and clearing cache Nothing changed as far as I'm aware. It's only firefox. Everything else is fine

So I really like using Firefox for YouTube

Issue is: If I have my video on fullscreen And I lock the screen

When I unlock my phone, Firefox is stuck in landscape mode

At this point only 2 options: Scroll back (sideways) to video to re-fullscreen, then un-fullscreen Close Firefox and open it again.

I have auto play off so it happens a lot at the end of vidéos

Thx
