"I’ve been having trouble with choppy YouTube videos in Firefox. It happens on both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. My system is running Windows 10, and I’ve already tried disabling hardware acceleration and clearing my browser cache. The issue persists even when I’m in Safe Mode. I’m using the latest version of Firefox (XX.XX). Any suggestions on how to fix this?"

Hello everybody, i hope you are having a great day!. I have a problem with Youtube about the frames drops, in 1080p60fps i have drops but in 1080p normal don't. For system operative i'm using Fedora 43. And the Firefox version is the 145.0.1 64 bits. My specs are low: Intel i5 6200u with his integrated graphics (Intel HD 520) Already installed the extension h264ify, and i think i have all the correct drivers and codecs from the rpmfusion (ffmpeg, mesa freeworld) If u need more detail and information i can give it to you. Thanks for anyone that is interested in help me.

I am running Firefox 144.0 on kubuntu 24.04.3 LTS I have lost sound on Firefox. I have opened the same sites in Chrome and the sound is working fine. It's only in Firefox. I have tried several sites including Udemy, YouTube, and radio programs, no sound from Firefox. The problem started in the middle of a Jit.Si session. All of a sudden the sound disappeared. I thought that restart Firefox would help, then restart the computer would help. But the problem has continued. The speakers is turned on the volume is up, just not a sound from Firefox. What to do?

Particularly on US news sites, inline / spot videos still auto-play despite the FF preference set to block audio and video. Mercifully, audio isn't playing. This seems to be a fairly recent problem since the last couple / few updates; not really certain.

Hello,

I am having an issue with my Bluetooth headphones (Sennheiser HD 450BT) in Firefox on Windows 11.

The headphones are properly connected to Windows and work correctly with other browsers (Edge, Chrome).

Windows shows the headphones as the default output device (stereo), and test sounds play through them.

However, in Firefox, the audio does not go through the headphones. Instead, it plays very loudly through the laptop speakers.

The problem started today; there were no issues for about a year.

I have tried reconnecting/reinstalling the headphones, but it did not help. Drivers are also up to date.

Could you please advise how to make Firefox correctly use my Bluetooth headphones as the audio output device?

Thank you for your assistance.

There's already a decent help article about how to block videos from autoplaying:

https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/block-autoplay

The problem is, it works haphazardly. Even if my default for all web sites is "Block Audio and Video", on some web sites (not all) embedded videos still start playing as soon as they scroll into viewport.

Some have adviced to delve into about:config and set media.autoplay.blocking_policy to 2 (default is 0) and, based on quick testing, that actually seems to help but why exactly does it help? If privacy settings already have a setting to block autoplay, why does that particular configuration change make it work as it is supposed to work?

Running Floorp 12.5.0 (Firefox offshoot) on Win11, if that helps.

Respected one, since 2 days ago, the sound was lost when playing video content on platform X. I did not make any changes in the settings for M.F. not even in PC, I HAVEN'T CHANGED ANYTHING FOR MONTHS. Do you have any ideas, advice... Thank You for taking the time to solve my problem.

I had to get a replacement keyboard,and it worked for a while , And then about a week ago, no volume on you tube,google ,but i have audio on mirosoft edge. Checked volume setting's over several times. An advisor told me ,that the logitech keyboard maker,installed optional driver's , that could have caused this? I searched device manager ,to uninstall but didn't find it?

Добрый день. У меня автоматически включаются субтитры при просмотре видео на ютуб и это очень раздражает. Я пытался выключить их через настройки аккаунта но это не помогло

I have two audio outputs I'm trying to use. I want my main output (device A) to stay as the default, but have Firefox play out of the other (device B). There is no option within the browser's settings to change the output device, so I am controlling them through Windows' Volume Mixer. If I set device B as the system default, it works, and it allows me to change Firefox to play from any output. However, if anything else is set as the system default and I set Firefox to play from device B, it doesn't work. It seems like it ignores only specifically that one device, and only when it is set at an app-specific level. It works on all my other outputs no matter which is the default. Even if I have device B as the system default, then at the app-specific level, set FF to any other device, then select device B, it ignores this and continues to play out of whatever device it played from last. The ONLY way I can get Firefox to play audio from device B is with device B as the system default. It's already disappointing that I can't control this directly from FF settings, but the fact that it's also ignoring my OS settings is really frustrating. I've already contacted Windows support, and they say the problem is with Firefox since all my audio devices are working fine. If anyone can tell me a way to just manage this setting properly in Firefox, some way to get Firefox to recognize the device, or some way to allow my windows settings to take priority over whatever FF is trying to do, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I am running MacOSX 11.6.8 and have just recently had my Firefox browser update to version 146.0 and it now has a problem with content playback: whether on video or usic, YouTube or Tidal or any other streaming service, whenever playing back content it stops at 2 minutes and 8 seconds, displays the buffering wheel, and doesnt come back on its own. If I hit pause and then hit play again, it starts playing again fine. But then after 2 minutes and 8 seconds it stops again and I have to restart it again. And again. And again every 2 minutes and 8 seconds. This is a very odd problem, is anyone else experiencing this? It is very annoying.
