Samsung Frame 85" 2023 with GTX 1050Ti GPU, HP G4 SFF, i5-8500, Win 11 Pro 26100.3194

TV signal, and audio cuts out (black screen) when using mouse arrow to drag scroll in side bar. Also gives a loud audible "click" as sound is temporarily cut out. ( Most probably whole HDMI signal is cut)

Black screen bug happens randomly with You tube with no mouse or keyboard action, but 100% repeatable with this website when scrolling :

For the past few weeks Firefox has been crashing and freezing often. Crashes are worst when trying to access Protonmail, which almost always crashes the tab instantly. Freezes happen most often when browsing Reddit, and also when watching Youtube, but crashes and freezes can happen on almost any website.

I have tried changing profiles, refreshing and uninstalling/reinstalling, but the problem persists and seems to be getting worse over time.

Here are some recent crash reports:

I am experiencing a flickering/highlighting effect on various webpages when using Firefox on some of my computers (a Microsoft Surface and Asus Laptop, but not my work desktop). Attached photos show an example from Gmail, where the one photo shows it open in Microsoft Edge (no flicker/highlighting effect) and the other photo shows it in Firefox.

When my cursor moves it causes the greyed out portions to jump to other areas. I also see this in places like the toolbar, where the rounded edges of bookmarks are now sometimes a grey square, similar to the greyed out emails in the photo.

I have restarted and reinstalled Firefox with no changes. Any idea what is causing this?

Firefox crashes every day or so on my home computer. The most common error message is "kmode exception not handled." I've tried the suggested fixes. Nothing helps. The crashes are not being recorded in "about crashes" or in %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\. So it seems the crash reporter has to be fixed before the problem causing the crashes can be identified. Firefox does not crash on my office computer and no other program causes my home computer to crash. Thank you.

Asking after trying way too many things FIREFOX 135.0.1 (64-bit) lates version and fully updated.

Playing Youtube Videos fails as the video keeps loading forever.

It happens randomly but often. It could happen trying to play the video the first time (keeps loading forever) or if the video is playing ok and you try to search any frame in the video or jump some time in the video, the frame stops and keeps loading forever.

I suspect it could be an extension because if I use Firefox in troubleshooting mode it works. However I tried to disable extensions one by one until none was enabled and still fails. Tried all options in the proxy. BRAVE works ok (but I installed it fresh to check another browser, I still prefer Firefox)

The issue happens only on Youtube. Youtube premium. Images attached of an example video that got stuck and loading and the list of extensions that I have, I tried to DISABLE ALL thes EXTENSIONS and still fails (???)

Firefox crashes randomly during video playback. I've submitted over 10 crash reports. Here's the two latest crash report (which includes my device's hardware information): https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/81eb1750-1dd0-490d-9eb1-d3c2c0250224 https://crash-stats.mozilla.org/report/index/6682a7f2-836a-4365-938e-c9ab20250224

I'm on Fedora 41 + gnome, but this issue persisted even in Windows 11, which caused BSOD therefore I made the switch to linux (At least in linux it doesn't crash the whole system, only firefox). If you need any additional information let me know. I can run journalctl/dmesg if required.

I've already tried things like restarting in safe mode (troubleshoot mode), refreshing firefox etc. Didn't work.

Thanks in advance!

Last update Version: 135.0.1 (64 bit) Since I upgraded, all cloudflare robot verifications are not passing. It constantly redirects to the verification page. For this reason, I started using a different browser. I go in and test it from time to time, it is still the same. Update. Fix it.

Note: I reset the browser. I removed the add-ons. I reset the proxy. Cache was cleared.

Result: It still does not pass cloudflare verifications.

The Subscribe and eEdition buttons work on the same website, which is extra-annoying.

Due mostly to upgrades in the app software, it's necessary to restart Firefox on occasion. Also, it's necessary due to OS upgrades. While the Restore Previous Session is a wonderful feature, it arbitrarily (and properly, by default) forgets all of the Private Tabs. But, there are times when I'd like to save some or all of the Private Tabs I've got open. A 'settable' feature to 'Remember Private Tabs during Restart' would be a tremendous asset at times.

If I go on any website using OSM data (including OpenStreetMap itself) on Firefox logged into my account, I experience a lot of slowdown. This doesn't happen when I use incognito mode or when I use another browser, so I'm pretty sure there's some kind of cache or something that's connected to my Mozilla account that slows down OSM massively. I've tried clearing all cache and all cookies. I've even refreshed Firefox using the installer and it's still slow. I don't want to bother with deleting my account and creating a new one. What should I do to try and return back to normalcy on OSM?
