Problems showing sprites/images correctly

I have had this issue for a long time so in multiple versions of firefox where images of different types don't load correctly and are replaced with a garbled tv-test image type.

On the attached image you can see an example where dots on the map wont show correctly. Can this be some sort of privacy setting I have enabled withot knowing? I have reset firefox but still get the issue.

Do you have enabled "Resist Fingerprinting" if you check "Resist Fingerprinting" on the about:config page?

  • about:config => privacy.resistFingerprinting

That was it! Thank you. Seems as the resist fingerprinting removes a bit to many images.

This is a problem with content drawn on canvas.

You can also try this to see if that works:

Should privacy.resistFingerprinting.autoDeclineNoUserInputCanvasPrompts to true or fale? (it's set to true)

I assume that it should be false to make Firefox prompt for allowing access.

That don't seem to help. I'll keep privacy.resistFingerprinting off.

Thanks for your help.
