YouTube videos are playing choppily in Firefox. The video frequently stutters/freezes or does not play smoothly, even when the same videos work normally in another browser. I have restarted Firefox and my device, but the problem continues. I would like help identifying whether the cause is hardware acceleration, Firefox extensions, graphics drivers, or another Firefox setting, and I would appreciate step-by-step troubleshooting instructions.

Please provide clear, step-by-step troubleshooting instructions to identify the cause of the problem and explain how to fix it. If possible, include the Firefox settings I should check and any tests I can perform to determine whether extensions, hardware acceleration, graphics drivers, or network settings are responsible.

Whenever there's audio playing, such as in a Youtube video, there's also a faint continuous high pitched noise as well. This issue isn't present in other browsers, is there any way i could fix this?

I can't seem to get microphone and video to work I've checked the permissions and still it's not working. I need to sign a docusign with a notary and time is of the essence . I am about to throw the phone at the wall. please help

so i found a strange problem that when i connect headphones to my computer i have a very quiet sound on firefox videos (youtube an ect.). it is not a low volume on my computer or headphones settings, in other browsers everything works smoothly, i dont know why is is only a problem here in firefox

Playback works correctly usually, but if I jump forward or backwards in time it sometimes never loads. This also completely bricks the whole brower, all other tabs etc, until I close firefox and restart it. This happens on all vods of twitch, and also livestreams where I am able to rewind (subscriber function). I have no extensions enabled, and have the default settings on firefox etc. ("Use recommended performance settings") Video of it happening: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3difRLhE-cA

After a Windows 11 update my Firefox browser no longer has any audio. The sound is turned all the way up in the Sound Mixer and I have no Bluetooth devices connected. After it initially happened I connected my Bluetooth earbuds and it worked for a few minutes before it too lost audio.

I have audio on all my other applications.

I'm running the latest version of Firefox on the latest version of Windows 11, and I'm trying to watch TV shows on PBS's Passport service. I get the video but not the sound. It's been like this since Saturday. I don't have this problem at all with Chrome or Edge. Is anyone else having this problem? JT

Hi. Every time I go into youtube, the sound cuts out after about an hour. I then have to go to settings, volume mixer and Mozilla Firefox and click on the X to get the sound back. Youtube has assured me this is not their problem, but a Mozilla one. I've been with Firefox for many many years and have never had this problem. Could you please advise me as to what to do about this ? Thank you.

It seems to be related to video playback but not sure. It was happening while a video was playing full screen, and also after stopping playing/hiding a non-full-screen video.

To catch the issue had to screen record at 240fps. I used Nvidia Overlay to record the issue, but was happening before the overlay was even enabled.

Disabled all addons, made no difference. HW acceleration on or off, still happened.

I tried turning on logs, and this always seemed to show up with the flash: ``` 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: Main Thread]: D/Widget GetWorkspaceId - calling AsyncUpdateWorkspaceID() 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget calling GetWindowDesktopId 2026-08-09 06:19:44.048000 UTC - [Parent 8388: BackgroundThreadPool #276]: D/Widget called GetWindowDesktopId, hr=00000000 ```

title sums it up mostly. I've entered troubleshooting mode; no discernible difference. When I switch profiles the issue is resolved even with the same YouTube account. Tried clearing the cache, nothing. Most recent version of Firefox, windows 11.

Hello I am using Google Flow on my Linux PC and when going to edit scenes I get an error about a missing Codec. If I use Brave browser works fine so this makes me think this is not an OS issue but browser.
