Videos in Firefox always low however

On YouTube and other video sites, videos are always much lower then in Internet Explorer and Chrome.

An animation I made is a good example of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OlrLzNj4z0

In Firefox, the contrast is too low... or black is bleached, I don't know the English words just for her.

But the same video in Internet Explorer is such that it is supposed to be, it's show as the original on my PC. And both are in HTML5 mode.

This is not only on my PC (8.1 Windows 64-bit): at work, I see the same behavior too on Windows 7 64 bit.

I hope that it is hoping to fix soon?

I just discover the cause: when I turn off 'Use hardware acceleration when available' videos are great. When I active that I restart Firefox, then everything is as I described it: bleached, less dynamic, less contrast.

Curious now what material Firefox uses to "accelerate": CPU, GPU or both?

    Hello

    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

    You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Then perform the following steps:

    1. Open the Firefox Options (Preferences on Mac or Linux) as follows:

      • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

        then select Options Preferences on Mac or Linux, or Windows.

      • In 28.0 Firefox and earlier versions, click on the Firefox orange upper-left button, then select the 'Options' button or, if there is no button up Firefox, go to tools > Options.
    2. In the window of Firefox Options (or preferences), click on the Advanced tab, and then select general.
    3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    4. Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

    In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

  • Firefox always opens to the last used web page

    Firefox always opens to the last used web page. I tried the suggested solution (delete user. js the file of the profile folder) but cannot find such a file in the profile folder. Can you please help?

    What is your computer system and Firefox?

    Type of topic: preferences #general< enter > in the address bar.

    There are two settings;

    • At the start of Firefox

    • Homepage

    1. Use current Page. Use the pages that are never open at this time.
    2. Use the bookmark
    3. Restore by default. topic: Home shows a home page of Mozilla with tools.

    You can use one of these as you want;

    or you can enter any web page or Subject: page you want.

  • Why Firefox always opens with the last session tabs?

    When I open firefox always opens with the last session tabs? How can I solve this problem?

    You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that affects the pref browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once true value.

    The user.js file is present than if you or another software has created this file and normally it wouldn't be here.
    You can check its contents with a text editor (right click: 'Open with'; do not double-click).
    The user.js file is read whenever Firefox is started and initializes the preferences to the specified value in this file, so the preferences set via user.js can be changed temporarily for the current session.

    You can remove the user.js file if you do not create this file yourself.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

    Windows hides certain default file extensions.
    Among them are .html, .ini and .js, .txt, so you can see only file name without the file extension.
    You can see the type of actual file (file extension) in the properties of the file via the context menu in Windows Explorer.

  • Cannot play flash videos in Firefox

    I am unable to play content flash facebook or CNN video. I use Firefox 31 and Flash 14.0.0.179 (32-bit) running Windows 7 Pro. I also have the 64-bit version installed for use with internet explore. These videos play fine in internet explorer but not in Firefox. Videos CNN stopped play in Firefox months ago and Facebook stopped in recent days.

    I started Firefox in safe mode, reset Firefox, uninstalled and reinstalled flash and uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of realplayer (found this suggestion online). So far, nothing worked.

    Just CNN videos freeze once the Player control bar appears at the bottom of the frame. Advertising plays, but it hangs at the start of the video of actual news.

    Facebook displays the thumbnail for the video (no AutoPlay as it does in IE will) and when you click it you get the pop-up window with the user comments for the right, but just a black square where has to play the video.

    If I right click and go to settings for flash, when I click on disable hardware acceleration, it reactivates it as soon as I click on close on the setting screen. When I return to the parameters of the box is checked again.

    Accidents or other problems with some multimedia content in Firefox (for example, videos from Youtube and Flash animations or games) can often be solved by doing as in these Knowledge Base articles:

    On Windows Vista and above all, you can disable protected Flash mode by following the instructions on these pages:

    (See this blog post Adobe for more technical details on protected mode Flash.)

  • You Tube is not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after the last update

    You Tube and other sites do not play video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after the last update for both. Adobe Flash works on other sites but not You tube and sites that can have embedded videos from You Tube, I'm not sure.

    Adobe Flash not crushed and no error message is visible. All that shows is a black screen for Flash video. Make a right click of the screen shows only a non-interactive 'a film has not loaded' and the clickable link to the home page of Adobe.

    I spent an hour trying things as suggested for past problems similar to this, but none helped.

    I sent sad face, letting you know what I think of the last update for this reason which explains pretty much the same thing, as I have said here.

    I have no other info but if I had a form any entry and queries you I might be able to provide more.

        I think the Flash 12.xx is a phantom. I can't find it on my comp. Only 13.xx shows anywhere but on the Pugins page in Firefox.

    Weird. I have no idea why it does that. Your list of details of the system shows that 13.0.r0 Flash.

       About the .Js I cannot find a User.JS in the profile folder but ther is a user.bk and other files that have.json. Should I do anything with these?

    If you don't, that's okay. Leave all of the files.

  • Graphics card Radeon laptop on platform Windows 8 crashes when you watch videos in Firefox. Problem does not replicate on other browsers. Is there a solution?

    I have a 4540 of Hp ProBook with a Radeon 7 x chip video integrated of series, platform Windows 8.1. When I watch videos with the browser Firefox video adapter fails and the computer sometimes freezes. If I watch videos with another browser I don't have a problem. I went to HP and have downloaded the latest drivers from AMD but still no will. So far, the only solution is to not use Firefox when watching video clips. In short, I don't know what direction to go, and since the problem seems to be specific with Firefox, I thought I would draw your attention to the problem.

    Some additional info... If I bypass the Radeon chip, i.e. use the alternate Intel video chip, I don't have a problem. It said the native PC with Windows 7 pro with the upgrade software and the key of Windows 8. In any case when 7 was installed there where no problems with the playback of videos in Firefox. Installing Windows 8 was installed a clean place, not an upgrade...

    Thank you

    I forgot a second hardware acceleration setting, which is changed in Flash itself. See this article from Adobe technical support: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues

  • Why firefox always crashes no matter what I do?

    Firefox always breaks down and ask to restart or stop
    I tried to reinstall firefox
    tried to use an older version
    even to reinstall the whole windows xp, 7 and 8 by train

    after fresh installed (after replacing the os) it works well, but then (maybe 3 days later) it starts crashing several times (sometimes every 5 seconds)

    this also occurs with other browsers such as internet explorer and others

    This is very annoying, please help

    If other browsers crash too? If so, you may need to check your RAM.

  • I can't watch the videos on Firefox. No problem see on Chrome. How can I fix?

  • Can someone tell me how I can watch any video on Firefox without Macromedia Flash?

    OK, I don't know, but the latest version of flash player really frustrated me. I don't like Chrome was my whole life the Firefox user, but I have to go because I can't stand adobe flash plugin. I uninstalled it and after restart of Firefox automatically plays videos from youtube, but does not have the same thing in dailymotion or vimeo or other sites. Is there a solution? Please help me I love Firefox.

    Hi Raynover, although Google Chrome does not require to install Flash as a plugin, it's because the Flash is integrated. So I don't think you can really get out of Flash!

    This troubleshooting article has recent suggestions on Flash in Firefox, and I think it will be updated regularly for at least the next week or two: 11.3 Flash does not load video in Firefox.

  • Can't watch youtube videos in firefox browser

    When I try to watch any youtube video in Firefox, I get a black square where the video is meant to be. I tried solutions in the areas of appropriate assistance without success that I can not find the firefox tool button to activate javascript. I also have the latest version of the shockwave player. How can I go about fixing this problem?

    It is a problem caused by an add-on/extension installed. Recently, I helped another person to solve the same problem.

    Launch FireFox in Mode safe mode, which disables all add-on/extensions & trying to watch the same videos again. Then select just each module individually again until the problem resurfaced surface to identify the add-on causing the problem.

    Firefox is a 32-bit application. Try to (1) download the 32-bit Setup program, save it to your hard drive, (2) close all browsers, (3) run the program installation and (4) test.
