Did you disable those add-ons?
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.
You will need to restart Firefox for this to take effect so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.,) and then perform these steps:
In Firefox 54 and below:
- Click the menu button
and select Options (Windows) or Preferences (Mac, Linux).
- Select the Advanced panel and the General tab.
- Uncheck Use hardware acceleration when available.
- Close Firefox completely and then restart Firefox to see if the problem persists.
In Firefox 55 and above:
- Click the menu button
and select Options (Windows) or Preferences (Mac, Linux).
- Select the General panel.
- Under Performance, uncheck Use recommended performance settings. Additional settings will be displayed.
- Uncheck Use hardware acceleration when available.
- Close Firefox completely and then restart Firefox to see if the problem persists.

You have several YouTube add-ons. Disable them.
Make sure you are not blocking content.
Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
ok, that helped
However, Problem is not solved because youtube is working only in safe mode. After restarting normally firefox is not playing any videos and all add-ons are off

In that case : would you please remove the Chosen Solution mark ?
You can do so by clicking on the 'Undo' button to the right of that post.
When you say :
" Youtube videos are not playing same as videos and audios from different other sites "
Could you be a bit more specific - like : what exactly is the difference ?
for example https://videos.pexels.com/ not playing
