Hi,

I have been having this issue with Firefow & Youtube for some weeks now.

What happens is that I launch a video, it plays well, but after 1 minute it stops. No buffering, no download of the next chunk of the video, nothing. It just stops. I have disabled all the addons I use and it changes nothing; in some cases, it stops the video from launching.

> Why this is not network related : on the same computer, at the same time, I can watch YT videos on Opera. Without issues. With uBlock origin enabled. And VPN. > Why I believe this is browser (ie. not computer) related : I have another computer, on the same network, that has the exact same issue. With less extensions, and no VPN. And again, when using Opera, YT works as intended, with uBlock origin.

There might be a setting related to video buffering to change, or something, I do not know. But this is beginning to be infuriating.

Is this a Google' crackdown on browsers not beging Chrome? Or am I an isolated case?

Thanks in advance !

Hello

For a while I have been selecting wall street journal articles and then clicking "listen".

A few weeks ago this stopped working on one computer a fairly new Lenovo running Windows 11. Currently running firefox 133.0.3. When I click "listen" on any article, nothing happens. Clicking "listen" on another Windows-11 computer on the same article does work, so apparently something is wrong with the settings on this one computer. Any suggestions please?

thanks

Ben

Hello

When attempting to pay for online purchases the new firefox upgrade (Mac 133.0.3) will not redirect from the merchant to the payment site. Yesterday, before the upgrade, was no problem making credit card purchases online; now, nothing. Please advise on how to set up new firefox version to allow redirect to payment websites from merchant sites.

Thank you.

Firefox 133 can't load websites, other browsers can

After a recent update to Firefox 133.0.3 (on Ubuntu GNU/Linux 22.04), Firefox is having difficulty connecting to websites and exhibiting some other odd behavior:

- After initially starting Firefox, it will load websites (e.g., previously open tabs) for up to 30 seconds. After that, it will not load any website in a new tab, showing the loading animation for several seconds before stopping all activity and just displaying an hourglass icon in the tab. These sites can be connected to in other web browsers. - After closing Firefox, its process is still running; I have to manually find its pid and kill it. - If I start Firefox from the terminal, I see these messages when it starts having trouble loading websites:

libva info: VA-API version 1.20.0 libva info: Trying to open /snap/firefox/5437/gnome-platform/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/iHD_drv_video.so libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_20 libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
