Until recently (sorry, I don't know which version I upgraded from), entering fullscreen mode when playing back video (such as YouTube) would automatically force landscape mode, even with auto-rotation disabled. Now, there seems to be no way for me to enter landscape mode while playing back a video, without enabling auto-rotation (which I otherwise always keep disabled).

I realize that the desired behavior here can be subjective, but at least it would be nice if there is/would be a way of configuring this behavior?

I'm on Android 13 (Oxygen OS 13 on OnePlus Nord 2T), with Firefox version 112.2.0 (release April 24 on the play store).

As it says. Maybe a month ago or so the audio stopped working. I know for a fact it used to work because I specifically used ff nightly because it allowed me to play audio in the background.

I changed no settings. Tested on both some video sites I often used to use and also bandcamp. Absolutely no audio. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or need more information.

Firefox doesn't play Youtube videos. When opening Youtube website, the loading progress bar stops at around 80% and the video keeps showing the loading circle when pressing 'play' button.

Seems like only the tabs that have been opened for a while are affected. When opening the same video in the new tab, the issue is gone.

When the app is force stopped and started again, the issue disappears and then appears again after some time.

Installed add-ons: uBlock Origin Privacy Badger Video Background Play Fix

The issue persists when all add-ons are disabled. Can be reproduced when using a mobile network without a VPN connection.

I haven't tried to reproduce the issue with all the add-ons initially disabled.

I've found similar issues, that are however not limited to Youtube: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1411513 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1419131 https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1374967

This issue is focused on Youtube, so that hopefully it will be easier to debug.

Thank you for developing and contributing to Firefox for Android. It's a modern and competitive mobile browser. I appreciate your effort!

After connecting a bluetooth headset and using Firefox (115.0a1 (Build #2015950435), 1d9511bcc3 + this version so far) to play online video is obviously lagging, not audio and video is not synchronized, is to play a moment to get stuck in a frame like this. My own troubleshooting revealed a problem with Firefox and the encoding format selected for the headset. Currently 1 the problem is only in bluetooth audio encoder selection acc (lhdc also have the problem but the symptoms are not as serious as aac) and triggered in firefox, other browsers can not be reproduced, test redmi k40 and xiaomi 13p also can not be reproduced. 2 after the screen recording is turned on, the problem is obviously lagging. 2 The problem disappeared after turning on screen recording, the screen recording parameter is 1280x720@60 at 32mbps, and the audio source is recorded in the system. Play the video first and then open the screen recording lag disappeared, first start screen recording after playing the video lag does not appear. And no matter what kind of situation screen recording stops lag recovery.

Happens on multiple websites including ones that worked previously, can't remember if Firefox updated in the last few days but the issue has only just started.

Have cleared cache, reinstalled, all permissions needed to save images/videos are allowed, but had no effect on this issue.

There is a bar now on the side of my phone in landscape mode, it wouldn't be a problem except it is even present during full screen mode for videos.

Hi. Around the last few days of July the videos on Youtube started freezing like when they stop playing to load, except it never stops loading and continue the video. When I skip ahead it plays for a few seconds and then stops again. I tried playing videos on other sites, and the same thing happens. The Youtube app works perfectly, and so does the Netflix app and the Chrome app - so I know it's a problem particular to the Firefox app. I removed most of my add-ons to test and it didn't help (the only ones I didn't remove are the uBlock Origin and the Search by Image ones). Also tried uninstalling and installing the app again, but no dice. Any idea how I can fix that?

Trying to upload an "image" to Facebook (I'm fairly sure it doesn't actually matter that it's Facebook) using the latest Firefox nightly build on Android.

When attempting to do so, .jpeg images are allowed - but .png files are greyed out.

Searching online, there's no mention about greyed out images for uploading. Since Facebook does support png images - what is Firefox doing to prevent me from uploading png files, and why?
