Playing back 4K YouTube videos on macOS uses software decoding, when the only GPU available is from AMD, despite the GPU being capable of VP9 decoding. Unsure if macOS's AMD drivers just don't have VP8/VP9 decoding baked in at all.

Skysports.com always asks me to select cookie options. Allow or View options and reject. I always choose the second one. The problem is. I can never choose the options. Opera browser, a better browser than this one, shows the options and allows me to choose. Sky just shows the same box every single page and I have to go through the same sequence every time.

By default, search results from the "new tab" page don't open a new tab, because that page is meant to be opened prior to initiating a search. However, I prefer to have the new tab page pinned so that non pinned tabs can all be closed and have something to fall back to other than my pinned tabs.

Therefor, it would be nice to disable search results opening a new tab from this "new tab" page due to how I use it (which is a preference that is required for having pinned tabs since the home page does not open unless all tabs are closed).

Before the new update of Firefox the drop-down menu would color itself a red color, if one of the options were already chosen. For example, if a webside had selectable options of answers in a drop down menu, and answer A already was selected, it's fillcolor/highlight would be red - ensuring the same options wouldn't be chosen multiple times.

How do I get this "feature" back?

Trying to use ProctorU with Firefox 104.0.2 on Windows 11 Home, and I am getting the following message : "Monitor Count : You may only use 1 monitor during your exam. Your monitor count could not be found". I searched for possible fixes, and someone mentioned removing fingerprinters, and possibly also remove cookies and tracking content from Firefox enforcement. I removed all 3 and that did not help. I also tried clearing cookies and site data and also cached web content, this did not help. Is there some other setting in Firefox that might be preventing the detection of the monitor count? Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

I have lost access to my e-mail account that I registered Firefox Accounts with and now I can't login to my Firefox account despite knowing the correct password because it insists on entering a code sent to the e-mail address I have no longer access to. Is there any way I can login to my Firefox account only with my current password to change my linked e-mail address? Or somehow ask support to change it for me manually? If none of that is possible, I want to, at the very least, deactivate or delete said account because I'm worried about the possibility of abuse.

youtube is the only site that streams properly(mostly), any other site gets stuck with 3 god dam dots in the middle. OTHER BROWSERS work JUST FINE. but I dont want to use internet explorer anymore. FF USED to work well.

some site literally just stop playing video. for 10+ minutes or until I intervene. if I copy the link and put it into edge it streams without issues.

internet, router, and pc are not the problem, I'm having a firefox issue. ive reinstalled the browser and cleared cache but nothing fixes streaming.

This is pretty much a duplicate of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1334684 : I have the uBlock Origin and Skip Redirect extensions installed, both work by checking/modifying the URL of the site I am trying to visit.

Unfortunately, I am running into some sites that are re-directed via some tracking URLs. Here's one example I had today:

Original URL: https://sslh62px.r.us-east-2.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fwww.allaboutcircuits.com%2Ftechnical-articles%2Fanalyzing-dc-and-steady-state-ac-circuits-with-python%2F/2/010f01832042551a-ed0a0774-ca39-4cd9-825e-a375504c6ea5-000000/c7T-m43jFRD5B3k49nHcvIOhCtM=71

As you can see, the destination URL is embedded within the tracker URL and as such, is exactly what Skip Redirect was designed to deal with. Unfortunately, uBlock Origin seems to look at the URL before Skip Redirect does and blocks it outright because it is a known tracker (awstrack.me).

If I could tell Firefox to let Skip Redirect modify the URL first (to https://www.allaboutcircuits.com/technical-articles/analyzing-dc-and-steady-state-ac-circuits-with-python/ ), uBlock Origin didn't need to block access to it.

Is there a way to change the order in which extensions are applied (i.e. get to run) when a URL is opened?

Hello,

I have issue in firefox for URL not update. I have describe details scenario in below.

Ref Url: https://new.axilthemes.com/demo/react/blogar/post-list

Step:-1: Visit Mentioned above URL.

Step-2: Change Page from Navbar Page menu and change any one.

Above two step no any issue. Step-3: Follow again Step-1; Step-4: Disturbed URL like this ( https://new.axilthemes.com/demo/react/blogar/post-list1111111) but make sure after URL change do not page refresh. Step-5: Now you can change Page from Navbar Page menu and change any one. Observe Behavior your page changed but URL not refresh and this is only happened only firefox browser.

I need help. I took the PC in to have a virus removed and the store removed AVG Anti-Virus and installed McAfee. When I got the PC home and connected, all the Firefox settings had been changed and the AdBlocker and Greasemonkey extensions were missing. I now get a message in settings claiming my browser is being managed by my organization, only I don't have an organization. This is my own computer and no one else uses it or has access to it. I reinstalled the AdBlocker and Greasemonkey, but now cannot get Greasemonkey scripts to download. I keep getting an error message. I've had both McAfee and Staples remote support looking at the problem, to no avail.

I clicked in refresh thinking it would just reload it all. I am pissed as I just got back most of my extensions, (just not all) You could also make a list of Extensions that could be clicked on to reinstall them one at a time or all at once.

This is getting old, I prefer Firefox over Edge or all other browsers, as of this text I am thinking of looking for anything better, as it is getting crappy.

Good morning, after today's FF update, it is not possible to login to the ASUS router (https://router.asus.com/). Yesterday everything was working fine before the update.

1. Does not work in private mode 2. Clearing the cookies did nothing. 3. You can log into the router in Chrome. 4. I don't have plugins installed.

FF v.104, Win10Prof

Any ideas? Regards.

Even though I have blocked popups now I get repeated adverts from Firefox itself for your password manager and similar things. I get no adverts from other companies and if I cannot stop the Firefox nuisance I will change my browser once again. How do I stop these Firefox adverts? I have the latest updated Forefox and run Win 11 on a PC

On most sites, I disable autoplay, but I would like to allow autoplay on all subdomains of a website, like bandcamp.com. There, each artist has a subdomain, such as https://firstartist.bandcamp.com or https://anotherartist.bandcamp.com. Right now, the 1st track plays, but then autoplay is blocked for the next one. I have to manually allow autoplay for every artist's subdomain I visit.

I'd like to allow autoplay on all the subdomains by adding something like https://*.bandcamp.com to the autoplay exceptions list (where * is a wildcard). I don't know how to do this with the exceptions list because there's no way to type in domains I want to add. I have to actually visit the website, wait for autoplay to be blocked, and manually allow it. I've already tried just going to "https://bandcamp.com" and allowing autoplay there, but that doesn't work.

Is it possible to allow autoplay on all subdomains of a website, like https://____.site.com?

Using Win 10, I Yahoo email (in French) almost daily. When I return to English work about 1/3 of my screen is still in French in random words. I tried shutting down and rebooting, same thing. MS thinks the problem is with Firefox. Can you help? I speak French and English fluently but neither is my 1st language. In other words, I can still read the entire web page but it gets tiresome switching back and forth. Thankyou

I recently moved from Chrome to Firefox. When I use Firefox on Ubuntu 22.04, I can access my passwords freely. However, when I use it on macOS Monterey, it does not work. Page about:logins shows no logins and passwords but only a small little warning bar in the upper corner that says that I need to login with my OS password (see Secure Firefox passwords with device sign-in _{fixed link to kb article. aw}). However, when I click the small "Connexion" button in the notification bar, nothing happens. I have no pop-up/prompt, neither on the system nor on the web page, to allow me input my credentials. I tried after reinstalling Firefox on my Mac but nothing changed.

Do you know how this problem can be fixed? Thank you, and sorry if it is a duplicate.
