I'm running the desktop version of FF 132.0 with no adblockers.
When watching a YT video at 1080p, if I leave the tab to look at other tabs, when I go back to the video playing it's dropped the resolution to 640*360. It is annoying because I don't know if YT or FF is adjusting the resolution.
If have two instances of FF open with YT running in one tab only (on a single tab with no other tabs open), the I browse using the second instance of FF. The video still lowers in resolution, when I'm not actively watching.
Is it FF, YT or perhaps my GPU trying to save bandwidth?
