I-Firefox ye-Android Community Forum

Currently I am using samung S 20 ultra. When i play a youtube video in firefox in landscape mode it play with black bars on both side of the video, means video doesn't fill the whole screen of the phone. Please add an option to do this.

Hello I switched from Chrome to Firefox two months ago. I noticed from the beginning of using it that it causes a lot of problems playing videos. I tried playing YouTube and Facebook videos, but many times they keep loading but don't play. I confirmed that my internet was fine and even when testing with ad blockers like uBlock turned off, it sometimes failed to play the video. The problem is really annoying for a user, please fix it.

As explained in the title. On my Galaxy A15, i tested the browser version of Reddit, Youtube, Behance, Instagram and even 4chan. All give the videos as corrupted or stuck on loading.

I already tried cleaning Cookies and site data, the history, already tried disabling all the add-ons, already checked for updates and reinstalling the app. I tested the same websites listed above on Opera and they worked perfectly. Please tell me if there is anything else i should try

Hello! I've recently been having some issues getting videos to play in the background from Firefox's audio notification media player feature. I very frequently use YouTube in the Firefox browser so that I can then exit the browser and still play the audio of a video via the media player, but last night that media player stopped working for me. When I close the Firefox app, I still get the notification as usual, but tapping the "play" button achieves absolutely nothing. I've tried to search the issue and test some fixes myself, but nothing has worked so far. The fixes I've tried include:

• Activated "Allow video and audio" in the Firefox Autoplay setting
• Made sure autoplay was allowed in the YouTube browser tab
• Tried to play the audio while connected to wi-fi and while on data
• Checked for updates to my phone, YouTube, and Firefox (I am up to date)
• Deployed the old "turn it off and turn it back on again" fix, both in Firefox (closing all tabs and re-opening), and for my phone (shut it down and restarted it).

None of the settings for the media player or general notifications for Firefox seem to govern this issue, so I'm bringing it here. Thank you for taking the time to read through all of this. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me! (I've included a photo of the notification bar for extra reference)

Firefox android: Playback issues on latest version 14-03-2026

I mean couple of patches ago, background playback worked just fine. Even on screen shut-off and making easier to listen to Podcasts.

Now, it's back to where it just shuts off if screen is no longer active. The hatred edition of active user screen playback nobody needs.

This is why using Firefox on Android is nuisance. YOU DON'T HAVE THESE SETTINGS ACCESSIBLE.

Firefox for Android 150.0 Build 2016155439 OS Android 16 Autoplay set to "Block audio and video" but audio and video still autoplay from NPR.org website started happening a few weeks ago Is there a way to fix this please?

thank you

• Bulleted list item “playing video on YouTube is always choppy” will help us understand the issue better than saying “something is wrong” or “the app is broken”. * Bulleted list itemitalic text

When I used YouTube through the Firefox browser, sometimes the full screen goes actual full screen, sometimes it shrinks the video and outs it in the top 2/3s of the screen. I'm not sure what setting could be changed, or if this is a YouTube issue. Its a pretty massive difference, uploading 2 screenshots showing the difference.
