Update your YouTube downloader Firefox extensions. Tools menu > Add-ons > "Gear" button > "Check for Updates". ... Update your Firefox browser or go back to previous Firefox version. Close and restart computer.

And this isable the Hardware Acceleration in Firefox.Scroll down and then under the Performance setting uncheck the "Use recommended performance settings" box and then uncheck the 'Use hardware acceleration when available" box. 3. Close and relaunch Firefox and try to play a video on YouTube.

I have closed and restarting several times. Thanks for any help you can give. I need to watch R Rainbow's latest.I reaa

Sadly still not working. having to use Chrome for YouTube. Strongly suggest not having automatic downloads checked for Firefox.

Thanks everyone for your help. I went back to the basics and took off all the add ons which I had done twice and tried it again and it worked this time. I was then able to add them back on one at a time and still worked. The people at DU are the best. Thanks a million.
