Firefox Community Forum

amazon.com works. but amazon prime videos hangs up -- the first page htat comes up always has an add and a watch now button. instead of getting the arrow to watch, i get a rotating pizza and it never loads the video

My Firefox auto updated to version 158.0 the other morning and since then, the Twitch video player fails to work. I'll try to watch a stream, but the video player will stay black with a constant "buffering" icon. There was no issue the night prior, before my browser updated.

I've tried watching Twitch on another browser and had no issues.

Here is a video which would demonstrate it best: https://youtu.be/MpHX4Ep-IMM

These two comparison are made between Firefox 158.0 (64 bit) in Troubleshoot Mode and Brave 1.97.59 (64 bit), on Windows 10, version 22H2. I use the 30MB Big Buck Bunny version on test-videos.co.uk site, Firefox seems able to load the 1MB, or 2MB version pretty smoothly, but higher than that, it starts to stutter, for some reasons I cannot understand.

(Most results I can find online tell me to "disable hardware acceleration", but I have been turning that setting on and off multiple times without seeing any changes)

Ironically, videos on Youtube can load normally without issues. It just seems any embedded videos would behave oddly like this, which I encounter most often on Discord.

Please, I would appreciate any insights. I can provide additional information if needed. Thanks in advance.

The top row in Firefox browser doesn't have any tabs, it looks as pictured in screenshot (Chrome below for comparison). I only see the icon and text for a page, but that isn't enough to know clickable area, and it makes it unintuitive.

I tried several browser themes but none of them changes this. There doesn't seem to be a setting for hardware acceleration anymore that used to solve it for some users in the past based on a search on topic.

Maybe this really is how it's meant to look but the design just went backwards from what we want to see; tabs are no longer tabs but something vague. Can never please everyone i suppose, but i want old back.

No videos play. I created a brand new fresh profile, but that didn't help. It seems like maybe there was a recent update, because they worked before.

On tubi it says the widevine crashed and I submitted a crash report for it.

I can't to play the free videos of the moon like this one: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:0491_Moon_Travel_01_30_24_00.webm

I am unable to uninstall firefox from the computer because I don't have permissions to do that.

I was hoping someone would have a simple suggestion that could fix it.

My PC is a desktop.

If I am using Firefox Private Browsing and download (and save) a jpg, it gets deleted when I close the Firefox private window. I save the file as 'image001.jpg' or whatever...

I can copy the saved jpg to a different directory (prior to closing Firefox) and that file does not get deleted, however the original saved jpg get deleted the moment I close Firefox.

I'm just surprised, as it seems to me that this shouldn't happen even if private viewing...

I should have the right to choose the downloads I want to keep, Instead, I get no choice! Look, I appreciate the safety and protection You give me, but I just get used to the system, and, a new download has arrived, and I'm not sure I want, or need it! I want that option, Please! I had SecureIE for many years, and I found it to be the best Browser available. If I could get it for w-10, I would! I'm not angry, just dissapointed!

    I hope we can reach an agreement on this!  Thank You for accepting this!

How can I prevent other sources from bypassing my Firefox/Mozilla downloads and installations? I once had a secure Firefox account. Now every time I update or reinstate there is a possibility that it will be violated in the future without my direction or approval? HELP

For some reason, the time on my browser (time displayed on Discord and such), is one hour behind the actual time. I never had Resist Fingerprinting enabled and there's no setting anywhere to change it manually.

i don't think you can you've fallen into the secure everything at the cost of your consumers going top Google chrome or Brave or etc just not firefox. It used to be my fav not any more congrats on your fuck up
