Video quality has changed recently on my Firefox browser
Sometime in the past few weeks the quality of any video I watch from any source has turned awful. Too much contrast, too vibrant. I checked all my settings on my monitor, and all is as it should be. I'm a photographer and aware of image quality and settings. Still images are perfect and the monitor displays stills correctly. My monitors are working fine. When I checked videos via Google Chrome, they all displayed perfectly. So, I can only deduce that it's a Firefox browser issue. I haven't added any new add-ons or extensions. I know that the browser has updated at least twice in recent weeks.
I have attached a screen shot of the difference between a chrome and firefox video. Please help. I don't want to change to using chrome. Thanks in advance.

Must be something with color management. Try to go to about:config and set gfx.color_management.native_srgb to true. Does it work now?
I have know idea where to find “about:config”. Please give clear instructions. Thank you.

Thanks very much. That instantly worked. You've made my day. How do you think the value changed to "false" in the first place?

This browser is constantly under development. Perhaps devs are testing some useful feature, but it's not 100% ready yet.
