Firefox 社群討論區

Had my laptop serviced at Best Buy, but upon booting it up the icon for 1Password in the upper tool bar was missing. Trying to figure out how to add it back. I use Mozilla Firefox and have Windows 11.

(AI written summary of troubleshooting steps taken before making this support thread)

Firefox version: - 152.0.1 Release - 153.0 Nightly

OS: - Windows 11 build 26200

GPU: - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER

Codec package: - Microsoft HEVC Video Extensions installed from Microsoft Store

Problem

Firefox does not expose HEVC playback support, causing Twitch to disable 1440p streams encoded with HEVC.

The same machine can play the same HEVC Twitch streams in Chrome immediately after installing HEVC Video Extensions.

Expected result

Firefox should report HEVC playback support and allow playback of HEVC streams, as Chrome does on the same system.

Actual result

Firefox reports HEVC as unsupported.

about:support:

codecSupportInfo: H264 SWDEC HWDEC VP9 SWDEC HWDEC VP8 SWDEC HWDEC AV1 SWDEC HWDEC HEVC NONE

Troubleshooting already performed

- Installed Microsoft HEVC Video Extensions - Rebooted Windows - Updated NVIDIA drivers - Verified hardware acceleration is enabled - Tested with a brand new Firefox profile - Tested with Firefox Nightly - Confirmed Chrome can play the same HEVC streams

Additional observations

Chrome: - Twitch 1440p becomes available immediately after installing HEVC Video Extensions - Twitch Stats for Nerds reports:

 hev1.1.6.L150.90.0.0.0.0.0

Firefox: - Twitch reports that the browser does not support the required resolution - 1440p remains greyed out - about:support continues to report HEVC NONE

Reproducible tests

Firefox console:

MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="hev1.1.6.L150.90"')

Result: false

MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="hvc1.1.6.L150.90"')

Result: false

navigator.mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo({

 type: "media-source",
 video: {
   contentType: 'video/mp4; codecs="hev1.1.6.L150.90"',
   width: 2560,
   height: 1440,
   bitrate: 8000000,
   framerate: 60
 }

})

Result: {

 supported: false,
 smooth: false,
 powerEfficient: false

}

For comparison:

MediaSource.isTypeSupported('video/mp4; codecs="av01.0.08M.08"')

Result: true

navigator.mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo({

 type: "file",
 video: {
   contentType: 'video/mp4; codecs="av01.0.08M.08"',
   width: 2560,
   height: 1440,
   bitrate: 8000000,
   framerate: 60
 }

})

Result: {

 supported: true,
 smooth: true,
 powerEfficient: true

}

Additional note

Setting:

dom.media.webcodecs.h265.enabled = true

causes HTML5 codec test (https://html5test.co/) to report H.265 support, but does not change:

- about:support - MediaSource.isTypeSupported() - MediaCapabilities.decodingInfo() - Twitch HEVC playback availability

Question

Is this a known issue with HEVC Media Source Extensions support on Windows 11 build 26200, or is there another requirement for Firefox to expose HEVC playback capability through MediaSource and MediaCapabilities when the Windows HEVC codec is installed and functioning in Chromium-based browsers?

Since a few days the free VPN in Firefox doesn't work anymore. When I activate it and try to load a website, i get the message: Connection with VPN failed. Try again in a few minutes. It also says, that my connection is possibly not private and that an app can possibly see my data traffic. The VPN always used to work fine, and I didn't change anything.

Hi, I'm running FF 149.0 (64-bit) on Windows 11. I've used profiles for a while now and on several occassions I've "lost profiles". Currently I have three profiles which I set up and edited the icon and colour associated with each. When I launch FF I see the Profile Manager and can select any of the three and I can create a new profile which shows here. However, once in any one of the FF profiles I don't see the others - by which I mean that when I go via the hamburger lines top right and click on the current profile, the 'other profiles' section is blank. I also cannot edit the profile from using the edit pencil top right (after clicking the hamburger lines and clicking on the current profile), it takes me to about:editprofile but the page is completely blank. Confusingly, if I go to about:profiles I see two profiles, neither of which shows up in the Profile Manager! I'm going round in circles trying to understand where to edit my exisitng profiles and make sense of the five profiles that don't all show up in the same place!

Upgraded to Firefox V.155.0 (64bit). Using Windows 11. The old version when accessing my Bookmarks allowed the option with a right mouse click to open that bookmark with the option "Open in New Tab". That option has disappeared. How do I get it back?

Current firefox version: 155.0

Since the last few updates, update frequency of title bar of inactive tabs slows down over time. Sometimes there is important info in title bar that should be updated frequently. Are there any flags in about:config that can be reverted to achieve that?

I mostly watch YouTube channels on Firefox on my laptop, but recently have had to change over to Microsoft Edge browser to watch YouTube. The reason is that during a channel stream, when an ad wants to play, YouTube and Firefox freeze and the only way to exit the screen is to either attempt to close YouTube or even open Task Manager to shut down all instances of the Firefox software. Firefox is by far my preferred browser and I'm frustrated that it is unusable in its current state. I tried to uninstall and reinstall, but this did not work. Thank you in advance for your help.

This shield on the search bar is making firefox on win11 unusable for me. I set browser.urlbar.trustPanel.featureGate = false but it still displays. Why do they keep making these changes, it seems like every month there is a new change requiring setting changes,

I had problem with a certain website, did trouble shooting mode and refreshed FireFox. Website works now but I keep seeing this when FIreFox starts. I set FireFox starts with default Firefox Home. Any suggestion how to correct this nuisance?

What can Firefox change so I can log into aarp.org or when I read an email open the article up from the AARP page. I continue to get error 15

When Firefox is running in a non-maximized window, an unwanted empty space appears on the left side of the tab bar, before the first tab.

This space is not present when the Firefox window is maximized. It appears automatically whenever the window is restored to a smaller/non-maximized size.

The issue affects the tab bar layout and leaves a noticeable unused area on the left side of the tabs. I would like to know whether this is expected behavior or a UI bug.

Firefox version: 155.0 64-bit Operating system: WINDOWS 11 25H2 64-bit

A few updates ago, headers and footers started appearing on anything I print from Firefox. No other printing from any other source does this. All the settings (advanced settings) show header/footer as off, and 'none' in all the header footer options. I have attempted every combination available and can't get rid of the headers and footers. I Don't Want Them!

Добрый день. После последнего обновления Firefox появилась проблема. Суть такая, При перетягивании вклдаки с одного окна Firefox на другое они не объеденяются. А переносится как новое окно. А в окне в которе переносится появляется синяя полоса и висит так бесконечно. Еще вчера, до того как я обновил до последней версии все работало нормально. Помогите решить проблему.

Google translate: Hello. I've encountered a problem after the latest Firefox update. When I drag tabs from one Firefox window to another, they don't merge. Instead, they move as a new window. A blue bar appears in the window being moved, and it hangs there forever. Everything was working fine yesterday, before I updated to the latest version. Please help me solve this.

I hit the "Clear Private Session" icon, confirm, but then I have to go to:

Open Settings >

Privacy and Security >

Browsing Data >

Clear Browsing Data >

"Everything" (every check box has to be checked) >

Clear.

I have Firefox in permanent Private Browsing only, and Privacy and Security Settings are set to Strict / Do Not Fix any site problems.

Why does Firefox retain browsing site data even after I exit out of Fiirefox completely unles I do all of the above?

I have the latest version of Mozilla Firefox 155.0.Every time i update to latest version my Norton 360 for Gamers antivirus Safe Web application blocks the update process and i report it as False Positive and Mozilla Firefox updates ok. I have attached and image of Norton's Safe Web application analysis. Also,have submitted this issue to Norton using their Report False Positive form and have not had a reply yet. Thank you

I work for a school district. At some point over the summer, a Firefox update started triggering my districts web filters. The filter says it's connected to Firefox VPN, but I don't have the VPN turned on. After a minute or two, I am able to access the internet normally in Firefox or any other browser.

There must be a setting or something in Firefox that triggers this since I can use any other browser normally, but once I open Firefox, everything on my computer is blocked from internet connectivity until the timeout is over.
