I-Firefox Community Forum

Fire fox is automatically playing videos/sound or both if I click on a tab that has that or also in facebook, etc. How do I stop this? I want to be able to click play when I want to hear/see something.

I'm not sure when it started happening, but whenever I'm watching something full screen, or just full screening, Firefox on Mac, there's this thin white line at the top of the window that's very distracting. Has this been happening to anyone else and does anyone else know how to get rid of it?

!. link to youtube only flashes then plays only audio. Full video requires opening link in a new private browser window

2. Typing into search bar for Duck Duck Go in new tab page types directly into active bar...

3. Active bar is no longer at the top but is in Bookmarks toolbar...

I suspect some update problem.

Lately, whenever I click into a youtube video from within youtube, instead of Firefox blocking autoplay, it mutes the video but lets it play.

Initially, it was muting EVERY video I pulled up, but messing with my settings has fixed the problem if I click into a youtube video from elsewhere (ex. a google search result), or if I refresh the page. It's super annoying to having navigating youtube be this non-functional right now, though, since everything just silently plays until I catch and unmute it! Any help would be super appreciated!

(I'll attach an image with my current autoplay settings.)

I was able to stream news from CTV news site but for some unknown reason I cannot stream it like I used too I cannot figure out why! Something must be wrong with my setup. Please help me fix my problem.

All of a sudden all of the videos I watch on YouTube with Firefox are defaulting to mute on my Macbook. I haven't made any changes to settings, etc. I don't have a YouTube account so I can't make any changes there anyway. I am having to unmute each video before I watch it.

When joining my daily Google Meet call, the audio is initially fine but when I change tab, change program or do anything other than look at the Google Meet tab, a crackling develops and gets worse the longer the Google Meet tab is not active. If I then switch to the Meet call, it alleviates the crackle but doesn't disappear altogether.

Things i've tried: - different earphones/headphones, bluetooth and wired, Mac's built-in speakers - disabled extensions - I've tried Chrome browser and the call works fine, no crackling whatsoever

Any ideas?

When switching to full-screen mode in Firefox while watching a video, the cursor won't disappear automatically until you move it. This issue affects all players except the native Firefox player. The bug appeared in version 143 and higher (affects all builds, including stable, Beta, and Nightly). I've tested the issue by rolling back the browser to versions 140 and 142.0.1, and everything works fine. There's a thread about this issue on the Bugzilla forum. macOS versions Tahoe 26.0 and Sequoia 15.7 are currently running. I can't test on other systems.

Hello,

I am having trouble with my Simple Practice connection static and video not functioning for my sessions with clients on Firefox and would like to have this remedied...Maybe I just need an update but looked under Settings and didn't see that option. Please advise. Thank you!
