If you can't update your graphics / video drivers, try disabling hardware acceleration.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

You need to close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

I have the same issue, videos on You Tube only play sound in Firefox, but the videos do play correctly in Chrome or Explorer. This seems to return after I have searched Firefox Help, found a solution, then upgrade to a 'new' Firefox version. The problem reoccurs.

I did perform the following, per a Help suggestion:

"Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

But the "Use hardware accel. when available" was/is already selected.
