Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

So I clicked into a video, and it did not play. Further troubleshooting showed it was a video hosted by vimeo, and youtube videos still worked. I tried on multiple vimeo hosted videos, on multiple unconnected websites (dropout, patreon, and directly on the vimeo website).

I tried the following fixes:

• I opened it in a private window and nothing played.
• I booted into safe mode, still nothing.
• I turned off all of my add-ons, nope.
• I cleared my cache and restarted, nothing.
• I cleared my browsing data and restarted, also nothing.
• I checked for updates: up to date.
• I created a test profile, and it works there.
• I opened Chrome and it worked there too.

The test profile/chrome thing suggests it's an add-on or something but the fact that I turned them all off and this still happened has me baffled.

Update: I fixed it. Was user error.

"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?"

how to cast videos from my phone to my TV if I got android phone, and I have i basic Sylvania TV without wifi or Bluetooth connection, hmi and a softwaode with fire fox app.link text

So, my problem is with HW acceleration in FF. Basically:

If its enabled: It causes graphical artifacts in videos [See screenshot]. If its disabled: It brings screen tear in to videos and autoscroll [Like if Vsync is disabled in games].

I tried safe mode, I tried reinstall of FF, I tried disabling and enabling extensions. I tried to set Vsync on in Nvidia control panel... the only thing that impact those bugs is HW acceleration in FF.

My drivers are up to date, my browser is up to date, yet there is such trouble.

Any ideas or solutions?

Quality switches to 360 when tab inactive firefox. I watch Twitch in 1080p. When I switch to another tab and then return, the quality drops to 360p and then automatically goes back to 1080p.

Hi,

two days ago, video embeds on Twitter stopped working in Firefox. Please help me troubleshoot the issue, so that I can either fix it myself, or present enough evidence to file a proper bug report.

Affected version: FF 140 ESR. I had some 140.7 installed when the error first happened, but have upgraded to firefox-esr_140.10.1esr-1_amd64 since. Didn't fix the problem. *Not* a snap package, regular .deb!

Affected OS: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, not a fresh install but upgraded from 24.04 instead (which itself was upgraded from 22.04).

Symptoms: Videos on X (and Facebook) no longer play, the preview image is there for a split second, then an error appears. Video on for example Youtube is fine, though. Local players like VLC also do work as expected. Video on X worked under 26.04 before this happened.

The issue likely started when removing surplus packages and metapackages from the upgrade. According to synaptics, this is the complete list of packages removed: augeas-lenses bomber bovo clevis clevis-luks db-util db5.3-util dolphin-dev gir1.2-freedesktop-dev gir1.2-glib-2.0-dev girepository-tools gostsum granatier guestfish guestfs-tools guestmount icu-devtools jose kapman katomic kblackbox kblocks kbounce kbreakout kdegames kdegames-mahjongg-data-kf6 kdiamond kfourinline kgeography kgeography-data kgoldrunner kigo killbots kiriki kjumpingcube klickety klines kmahjongg knavalbattle knetwalk knights kolf kollision konquest kreversi kshisen ksirk ksnakeduel kspaceduel ksquares ktuberling ktuberling-data kubrick kubuntu-web-shortcuts ldmtool libaom-dev libarchive-tools libaugeas0 libblkid-dev libconfig11 libdbus-1-dev libdlt3 libffi-dev libfmt-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfribidi-dev libgd-perl libgio-2.0-dev libgio-2.0-dev-bin libglib2.0-dev libglib2.0-dev-bin libgraphite2-dev libguestfs-perl libguestfs-tools libguestfs0t64 libharfbuzz-cairo0 libharfbuzz-dev libhivex0 libicu-dev libjose0 libjson-glib-dev libjxr-tools libjxr0t64 libkdegames6private6 libkmahjongg6 libldm-1.0-0t64 libmosquitto1 libmount-dev libosinfo-1.0-0 libosinfo-l10n libpcre2-dev libpixman-1-dev libpolkit-gobject-1-dev libpsl-dev libpwquality-tools libpython3-dev libpython3.14-dev libselinux-dev libsepol-dev libspdlog-dev libsqlite3-dev libssh-dev libstd-rust-dev libstring-shellquote-perl libsys-virt-perl libsysprof-capture-4-dev libsystemd-dev libtirpc-dev libusb-0.1-4 libusb-1.0-0-dev libusb-1.0-doc libusb-dev libvirt-common libvirt0 libwebsockets19t64 libwhoopsie-preferences0 libwhoopsie0 libwin-hivex-perl libx265-dev libxdo-dev libxdo3 libxft-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxrender-dev libyara10 lskat lskat-data mosquitto mosquitto-clients native-architecture osinfo-db palapeli palapeli-data picmi qml6-module-org-kde-games-core skladnik supermin whoopsie whoopsie-preferences I don't think they are related (libx265 and libaom are only the -dev packages), but this is the only system-wide change on that day that I can remember. I of course tried re-installing these, but this also doesn't fix the problem.

On my journey of fixing this myself, I also asked the all-hallucinating knowledge randomizer frontend of OpenAI, which made me check a couple generic spots on my system and in FF itself.

This is the link to the video that will not play in FireFox. https://www.swingtechnologies.com/UploadVideos/clarkj@pobox.com/S200629_019 B.mp4

I have HDR working in Proton games and mpv fine (using Plasma 6.4 / Wayland)

I enabled HDR in Firefox (gfx.wayland.hdr), and HDR content works in YouTube fine ( looks amazing!) however.. I have an issue in that all non HDR content doesn’t show any video (I have sound) just a green sceen (see screen shot) including all ads.

Any idea how to work round this ?

I have AMD 7800 GPU .

Hello, I am currently using windows 11 with firefox 149.0. Regardless of what website I use (youtube. steam etc), the browser struggles to establish consistent connection to my bluetooth earbuds. It connects for one moment, but then soon the volume goes out and eventually it disconnects. Though it would reconnect soon, the cycle just keeps ongoing. I have experimented with other apps and browsers, as well as multiple bluetooth earbuds of other brands to be sure that it is a firefox issue. I have checked the volume mixer menu to ensure that there is nothing wrong. I have also made sure that my drivers are all up to date with no issue. But the issue still persists.

No audio on Firefox. Google Chrome has sound. Settings at normal audio volumes. Tried computer shut off and re-boot. Tried reload of Firebox.but that didn't help. Had scam attempt just before no audio issue...not sure if that problem.

Hello, I am facing an issue while playing YouTube videos in Firefox. The videos are lagging and not playing smoothly, even though my internet connection is fine. Please help me fix this problem.

Trouble with streaming services(like youtube(only streams ), twitch, music streaming) on nightly Firefox Nightly 145.0a1 (2025-10-11) (x64) Cachy OS Binary from firefox.com

Здравствуйте. При воспроизведении видео на каком либо сайте в полноэкранном виде не скрывается панель задач виндовс. На других браузерах работает как надо. Менял где только можно, даже в безопасном режиме также. Как её можно убрать?

I am do not get sound using audio recorded with akamai player with Fire Fox browser. I tried the same link using Edge browser and the audio works.

I have tried clearing the cache, but still no sound.

How do I resolve this issue using Fire Fox as my default browser? Is there an audio extension that is needed?

I've freshly reinstalled Windows 11 and after trying to access and watch a movie on any of these sites I get an error (see the pictures).

Browser version: 137.0.1 (64 bit) Widevine version: 4.10.2891.0

Already tried to disable/enable DRM. Already reinstalled firefox. Already manually installed widevine. No clue what could be causing this issue.

Hi,

How can I force Nightly to play a media type ? Per instance, the top main video here : https://www.lapresse.ca/international/asie-et-oceanie/2025-12-23/coree-du-nord/kim-jong-un-inaugure-un-complexe-hotelier-dans-une-station-de-montagne.php
