I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Firefox used to have an option to put tabs back under the address bar, it is missing. I don't want to mess with custom css files every update when mozilla breaks things again.

For the past few days, the YouTube website has behaving unusually in Firefox. The volume and play/pause controls don't work. The picture in picture mode does not work. And most importantly, the search bar is broken. Whenever I type something and click the search button or press enter, the value entered disappears and I have to type it all again, only that this process goes on for infinite number of times and so, I can't even search for anything on YouTube.

I'm encountering consistent video playback issues on Firefox while running Fedora 38. The error message I receive when attempting to play videos from certain sites, notably LinkedIn and Twitter (now X), is:

• The media playback was aborted due to a corruption problem or because the media used features your browser did not support.*

Furthermore, when examining Firefox's console while attempting to play a video, I observed the following error:

• [Child 5999, MediaDecoderStateMachine #1] WARNING: Decoder=7fdb3c55a100 Decode error: NS_ERROR_DOM_MEDIA_FATAL_ERR (0x806e0005) - mozilla::MediaResult mozilla::FFmpegDataDecoder<60>::InitDecoder(AVDictionary**): Couldn't open avcodec: file /builddir/build/BUILD/firefox-118.0/dom/media/MediaDecoderStateMachineBase.cpp:166*

Steps to Reproduce: 1. Navigate to LinkedIn or X (previously Twitter). 2. Attempt to play any video content. 3. Observe the aforementioned error.

Additional Details: - OS: Fedora 38 - Firefox version: Initially 117.0.1, then updated to 118, both 64-bit. - This issue does not occur on Google Chrome on the same system. - I have attempted the following troubleshooting steps without success:

 1. Updated Firefox to the latest version.
 2. Enabled DRM content.
 3. Booted Firefox in Safe Mode.
 4. Disabled hardware acceleration.
 5. Cleared cache and cookies.
 6. Used a Flatpak version of Firefox.

This issue has significantly impacted my user experience, and I hope to find a resolution soon. Any assistance or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

When I select in Settings>Privacy & Security>History, that a history should never be saved and close the Settings tab, the next time I go to Settings, the option is replaced by the setting, that saves a history according to customisation and there's a check mark to always use the Private Mode. Apparently Firefox doesn't keep or save the setting. I learned from https://support.mozilla.org/de/kb/privater-modus that saving a history according to customisation with the option to always use the Private Mode enabled, is the same as never saving a history, nevertheless it should be possible to keep the setting (as the setting exists). How can I solve the problem?

Hola. Mi ordenador tiene Debian 12. Utilizo Firefox 118, instalado a través de Flatpak. El problema que tengo en algunas páginas es que veo las fuentes pixeladas y la impresión es muy defectuosa, hasta el punto de no entender lo que aparece escrito. Esto sólo pasa en algunas páginas.

Si descargo directamente Firefox desde la página de Mozilla y abro la paǵina con una configuración limpia del navegador, las fuentes se ven correctamente; sin embargo, si sincronizo los datos de usuario, instalándose los datos, extensiones y demás las fuentes en determinadas páginas se ven mal.

Desactivé las extensiones pero el problema no se resuelve. Desde una instalación limpia de Firefox instalé una a una las extensiones y complementos, pero no logré reproducir el problema. Borré incluso la caché del navegador, pero nada. Y también sincronicé los datos de usuario en una instalación de Firefox en Fedora, pero el resultado es también negativo.

Alguna idea?

Gracias.

Greetings,

Due to predatory business practices, I have resorted to launching a basic webhosting business to support my other businesses and provide cost effective online presence solutions to small businesses. In order to provide the best service, I'll need to become a certification authority. I am well aware of how to generate AES256 encrypted key pairs (4096), and I will have no trouble following the rules listed in section 2 here:

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/governance/policies/security-group/certs/policy/#2-certificate-authorities

Who might I contact to further my goals? You will notice that my sites lack SSL encryption at the moment, because I would prefer to issue them myself. When I self-sign them currently, browsers do not honor my certificates. For some background, here is my linkedin:

Please, how can I disable the tab title on hover? After they appear, they stay on the screen even if I switch windows and are extremely annoying. (Work on fedora, gnome)

Frustrating experience trying to use Twilio Authy. Whenever I first installed it on my iPhone I was using Password1 and that is the only record it shows, with no obvious way to delete that entry now that I have dumped Password1 in favor of Bitwarden. Plus when trying to install on Linux Mint desktop it first wanted me to use Snap package but Mint uses Flatpak. Got it installed using default software manager in Mint, then when I wanted to authenticate it sent code to phone, but phone said already registered so no way to authenticate desktop version. Forget it ... I use my Yubikey for all my other 2FA and it works slicker-n-snot this Twilio thing is too much hassle comparatively. When Mozilla adds some other 2FA choices THEN I can use 2FA with FF, not this app. Ugh.

Why does firefox constantly ask for capchas on VPN when doing searches on Google? It is a serious problem. The vpn is for my security, not google.com

I have been using Firefox Quantum 57. 0.4 64 bit for Linux Mint 1.0 will I be able to use Firefox 113.0.2 and is there anything I need to do after downloading it. I am computer illiterate, any help will be greatly appreciated.

I visit antiwar.com, read an article, read comments, then try to give a thumbs up on a comment I agree with. I click on the Disqus box to log in, but the vote count doesn't go up. I've already tried setting NoScript to allow everything on that site, but nothing changes. I've already tried uninstalling Firefox then reinstalling it on my Debian based Linux computer, but the settings are remembered. I have also tried to refresh Firefox like this page says: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/refresh-firefox-reset-add-ons-and-settings But the instructions are apparently for an older version of the browser because step number 1: Click the menu button Fx89menuButton, click Help and select More Troubleshooting Information. does not lead to what is shown on step 2. No "Refresh Firefox" boxes appear.

Is there some setting I need to change in about-config?

The "automatic zoom" seems to regularly zoom to a level that will cut off text far down on a page.

I'm not sure how "automatic" it is as it mostly seems to be a slightly zoomed in level compared to page fit. From the name it sounds like it should detect where there is text on a page and hide some air in headers/footers. However, even in cases where it cuts off right as the text cuts off, it's often unclear if there's a following line or empty footer space following the last visible line.

As it is I'll switch to page fit for default, but it would be preferable if the out-of-the-box experience either did a better job of not cutting off right before the text ends; at that point both page fit and width fit are better default options.

The examples are from a zoning proposal in Oslo.

Hi,

I running Firefox on Ubuntu Lunar. Every thing is updated, Software Updater doesn't find anything to do. Neither does looking for updates in the extension manager.

I have a lot of extensions installed, probably too many. They include several malware, tracking, popup, and ad blockers. I'm surprised they seem to be playing well together without stepping on each other. When they do block something I need, it's hard to tell who blocked that and then fix it. Is there an easy way to find which one did the block?

Could the multiple blockers be interfering with each other in subtle ways without me noticing?

I have some false alarms where at first I thought extensions were interfering with each other. There are a few extensions that don't work: Dictionary Anywhere, Don't Track Me Google, and To Google Translate among others. When I click the puzzle piece extensions icon in upper right corner, they are grayed out and can't be used. I tried disabling all the other extensions and tried each one at a time by itself. They are still grayed out.

Any ideas?

I stream video and after 10 minutes, graying out of screen or simply the steaming stopped. Repeatedly same problems. Problem for same streaming not seen using chrome.

I do online payment and screen locks up. I refreshed... no change. I paid in chrome... no issues Now notified that I may have paid twice. WTF?

Why suddenly problems with firefox.

Running Linux mint

How do I prevent Firefox from re-opening my last session upon reboot, for example after my laptop dies or I shutdown without closing browser windows? I never never ever want Firefox to restore pages at any time for any reason.

Background: I use firefox for work, and I keep 7 separate firefox windows open to the sites I use to do my job. Because it's a pain opening them every time, I created a shell script (I'm using linux mint 21.1 by the way) to do it. I just double click a desktop icon to launch my shell script and all of my windows open in the order I like them to be in.

Unfortunately, if my laptop battery dies or if I just am in a hurry and I log out without closing everything, then the next time I log in and launch my script, it opens my first firefox window, which then decides to open ALL 7 of the windows that were killed when my laptop shut down, and then my script opens the remaining 6 windows it is supposed to open, for a total of 14 browser windows now open, and I have to close half of them.

What I tried: I googled around and the only thing I could find was the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once settting, which appears to have no effect whatsoever when I restart (my test was to set this flag to false, open 7 browser windows, restart my machine without closing the browser windows, and then launch my script and the result was 14 browsers open instead of 7).

Version: I'm using Mozilla Firefox for Linux Mint (mint-001 - 1.0) with a Firefox version number of 111.0.
