Coming from Chrome for a very long time to firefox I am used to clicking an embedded audio opening a new tab with a "playthrough" feature. When I have tried this with Firefox it automatically downloads or skips this preview capability.

for any website playing a video, if i skip ahead or go back, the audio breaks. Its not a smooth transition like chrome. It is like it suddenly cuts off the audio and then begins at the skipped ahead point.

Pages not starting to show. Page itself working ok. in Crome works 100% Note: Funny thing is that many of the videos work ok, but some not ??

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.

So I clicked into a video, and it did not play. Further troubleshooting showed it was a video hosted by vimeo, and youtube videos still worked. I tried on multiple vimeo hosted videos, on multiple unconnected websites (dropout, patreon, and directly on the vimeo website).

I tried the following fixes:

• I opened it in a private window and nothing played.
• I booted into safe mode, still nothing.
• I turned off all of my add-ons, nope.
• I cleared my cache and restarted, nothing.
• I cleared my browsing data and restarted, also nothing.
• I checked for updates: up to date.
• I created a test profile, and it works there.
• I opened Chrome and it worked there too.

The test profile/chrome thing suggests it's an add-on or something but the fact that I turned them all off and this still happened has me baffled.

Update: I fixed it. Was user error.

Anyone else having issues with facebook reels/videos not loading?

In my feed, most of them just show a black frame and if I click on them, the screen goes black also.

I was receiving Directv content on Mozilla Firefox for months without issue. Suddenly it stopped completely and left a message "We couldn't play this content at this time". I don't understand why this happened or how to fix it. I want to do all my browsing with Mozilla Firefox so I need help. It would be truly excellent if I could speak to a human about this issue. Please.

ive been facing this issue since i dowloaded mozilla in my mac mini, and it just randomly decides to not play audio at all unless i shut all of the tab down and re start the entire browser which is very annoying because i am a video editor and i am working multiple tabs at a time and need audio always and since tabs can't restored in the order they were before closing this is sabotaging my work heavily, i love the browser overall but this specific ruins it because its a basic feature

hello my problem is widespread, recently i took my pc to shop because of some system problems, shopkeeper updated my windows 11 to newest version before update i think i had version from before 2025 i think, anyway many old programs i had saved stopped working or started to have problems if they worked, i had to instal new Firefox too because i completely lost the old one, and the problem i had while watching youtube was weird white blinking sometimes, it was very annoying, i searched online for solution and found out that i should turn off hardware acceleration, blinking stopped but now i see weird horizontal line in the middle of my screen while looking at pictures and moving them up or down or watching movie that moves up and down too, i dont mind turning acceleration back on but then resolving blinking while watching videos on Youtube my windows 11 version 25hc GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 driver updated 23.04.2026 version of driver 32.0.15.9636 firefox version 151.0.1
