Full screen videos are slow as fuck

Full screen videos are slow as fuck

Scrolling youtueb comments is choppy as fuck

Moving between tabs with a lot of tabs open is choppy as fuck

But I love the addons and customizability

WTF am I doing wrong? I'm actually using opera and edge to view videos now

Try enabling or disabling graphics acceleration, see if one of the settings works better

Make sure your video card drivers work

Restart ff once every day or two if you are a "power user", or use hibernate a lot

Last possibility: your computer simply sucks

I can say though that ff is sometimes choppy even on a modern i7 laptop with ssd and dedicated graphics, i use it daily with around 10 addons

>WTF am I doing wrong?
You're not using openwith and mpv

you are not using mpv for viewing videos

Thanks for the effort of giving advice but this is really bad advice

I know for a fact everything works fine with other browsers

And this is my computer, this isn't a hardware issue

Ok how do I use it?

Also I don't use hibernate, drivers working, tried with and without accel

Download mpv.

You must have a shit ton of useless add-ons that are conflicting with each other. Used some kind of modification that disturbed the config of the browser. Who knows.

I would make a new Windows user account and clean install a fresh copy of Firefox to test. Often times it is Windows decay.

wow it's nothing

Maybe your 10 year old laptop just isn't enough for the modern web

I didn't realize people still used noscript despite all the shit the author's up to.

Using a 10 year old PC does that.

What'd he do? It's mostly disabled for me on most sites

download mpv + youtubedl + Watch with MPV/one of the other "open with" addons

delusions literally no problems in any other browser

Why do I need to do all this just to watch youtube videos smoothly when every other browser has smooth youtube videos from the get go?

I love firefox but this is a joke

Works perfectly on my machine™. Switch to Linux if you want better performance. My 2nd shit tier PC without a dedicated GPU runs videos smoothly on full-screen.

I have no problems playing videos in firefox but I prefer mpv because the picture is better with my config file. Others seem to play videos just fine aswell, which makes me think its something on your end.

>implying (((Google))) doesn't deliberately reduce the performance of their sites on anything other than Chromium browsers
There was an user who said switching user agent to Chrome made some sites smoother.

you don´t have to but mpv is plain superior as a video player
i´d recommend the same thing on chrome/opera/any other browser you can imagine

Hey guys anyone experienced something like this? Woke up and now adblock pretty much blocks everything except the video

This is a problem how?

>Why do I need to do all this
>copy link address
>mpv pasted-url
so much effort
i can feel your manboobs sweating

Same for me. I watch all livestreams in Chrome

Most of your addons are not e10s yet or too bloated

That is definitely an improvement desu senpai

Or...you could do it in 2 clicks

I'm literally too stupid for some reason.
>Installed Watch with MPV in ff.
>Put youtube-dl.exe (yes, I'm on Windows atm) in a random folder // C:\Program Files
>Right-click a youtube video > Watch with MPV
>Nothing happens

Where the fuck do I read about how to make this shit work? Any user willing to help out?

What do you mean random folder? It is supposed to go in your mpv folder.

YouTube is slow in general, it's not a Firefox only thing

>Scrolling youtueb comments is choppy as fuck
You fucking deserve it

i block almost everything with umatrix
also: >logging on jewtube

Did not know that, user. I put it in the mpv folder, right-click on a youtube video > Watch with Mpv > nothing happens.

Ugh

Did you put the path of where mpv is installed in the addon? What addon are you using? I use openwith and it works great.

I have Watch with MPV > addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/watch-with-mpv/

Yes, I have the correct path in the addon as well. Can't figure out what else I'm missing.

>Specify native player executable full path
>full path
>executable

you're pointing to the folder, not the executable.

I am not a smart man.

Thank you, user. This feels godly.

No prob. Just be aware that it fails without warning if it can't find a video file on shit websites.

Point taken.

I just feel weird because I couldn't find a way to figure all of this out on my own. Guess I need to work on my reading comprehension

This is a godsend for a dual-monitor setup.

>Full screen videos are slow as fuck
use an actual media player to play media, not a web browser
>Scrolling youtueb comments is choppy as fuck
why on earth would you WANT to read youtube comments?

It's not choppy on other browsers

Im using firefox and its not choppy for me either
