What the label on the can says. I have a dual monitor setup on my Mac, and when I maximize the video in my secondary monitor I can't see my cursor in the main monitor. If I click into the maximized video the cursor reappears, but once I move the cursor back into the main monitor I lose sight of the cursor again. This is very annoying, as I often watch videos in my secondary monitor and need to continue working in the main monitor.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

  • Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
