Yeah, I'm fairly certain the Fix Videos script is one I posted originally. If I remember rightly I put it together from random googling when I got sick of videos autoplaying. Or something. For what its worth you can not bother with the whole adding CSS bit by re-writing my section and adding two lines to style all the video tags individually. Is this more inefficient? Maybe. Is it less code. Definitely. JavaScript code:

Ah, I use NoScript so a lot of stuff doesn't work for me that does for others, so half the time I have no idea what people are on about. I did have a script at one point for re-writing Imgur GIFV links to MP4 as they seemed to work better, just tweaked it to embed WEBMs if it isn't embedding them by default. Again, my setup is weird and I have no idea if this is needed. But I guess the code is here people need it for something. Assuming it works, I haven't tested it.JavaScript code:

I'm looking at that code and I have no idea what half of it does, JS has changed so much since I learnt the basics nearly 20 years ago. I'll ask this because google is no help here at all, what's with the 3 periods on document (...document)?

Maigius posted:I'm on a new profile in Window 11 and really want thick, permanent scrollbars back. What settings to I need to change to get those back? From a bit of messing about in about :config it looks like setting layout.testing.overlay-scrollbars.always-visible to true, makes scrollbars always visible. Can't see anything obvious for the size, I feel like that's going to be a userChrome.css thing and I can't find any examples.

I still to this day hate the revamped version of Firefox Android. At this point I don't even remember all the things it used to do other than the lack of extensions. That and when you click on the address bar and click one of your frequently visited sites it opens a new tab rather than using the current one so I end up with loads of tabs for no reason and have to keep closing them. I don't understand why they made it do this and I don't understand why they can't fix it. I don't suppose anyone knows if there's a workaround/fix/addon for this?

This has got me utterly stumped. Twitter no longer loads for me, at all. It gets stuck in a redirect loop of constantly redirecting to the login page. I think I've narrowed down the issue and I flat out don't understand it. If I look at the requests in the devtools I see that it sends a 302 to the login page and a set-cookie header. But Firefox never sets that cookie. Even if I manually add the cookie, when I try again it never sends it. Anyone have any idea why Firefox wouldn't send cookies for only one website?
|
# ¿ Jul 3, 2023 13:52 |
|
Yeah I assumed it was a twitter issue for the last few days, but Firefox isn't sending cookies even if I set them manually, that's weird and definitely a Firefox issue.
|
# ¿ Jul 3, 2023 14:17 |

No dice. I've cleared cookies and cache, I've checked that its cleared in the bit where you can search for sites. Restarting doesn't help. I tried safe mode and it still happens so its not an addon issue, I tried it with a fresh profile and it loads, so I assume its a setting somewhere. But what setting? I'd rather not have to totally rebuild my profile just for Twitter.
|
# ¿ Jul 3, 2023 15:15 |
|
So I fixed it. At some point, somehow, the site permissions for twitter.com had changed to block the use of cookies. I didn't even know that was a thing, so I've no idea how that happened.

god please help me posted:I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a Youtube video playback problem. Youtube videos keeps flipping out when I switch between other programs, or resize the window or popout window I'm viewing the youtube video in. If the video is popped out, it will also get closed by itself and return to the youtube tab. Has anyone else been having issues like this? This is a brand new Windows 11 PC btw. I was wondering if there was a Firefox update lately that's been causing this, because my older Windows 10 PC didn't have any problem with running multiple programs at all. Use Linux. That's a semi-serious answer. A more serious one would be, are your graphics drivers updated? Do videos on other sites do the same thing?

The fact that its just YouTube is weird, I wonder if its something to do with the CODECs in use. Have you tried enabling/disabling hardware acceleration?

god please help me posted:I have now tried disabling hardware accelerating from the default enabled. Upon experimentation, it was not hard at all to force Youtube into a freezing and crashing by mildly twice resizing the window from a small size into a full screen size. Darn. Other random question,uBlock, or uBlock Origin? No idea if it would make a difference but uBlock Origin is the preferred one AFAIK.

They said they had previously. I think they also said they're expecting a firmware/driver update soon that may fix the issue.

Having to switch tabs. I agree I prefer the old option, but I used it so rarely I just put up with the newer dumber option. Which I sometimes forget the name of and have to spend longer looking for it.

Apparently desktop extensions are finally coming to Android. https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2023/08/10/prepare-your-firefox-desktop-extension-for-the-upcoming-android-release/ quote:In the coming months Mozilla will launch support for an open ecosystem of extensions on Firefox for Android on addons.mozilla.org (AMO). We’ll announce a definite launch date in early September, but it’s safe to expect a roll-out before the year’s end. I honestly don't believe them. WattsvilleBlues posted:Good to know! The extension allows you to right click and select the last 10 or so closed tabs, so it still has use. History > Recently closed tabs has more than 10 in it and its already part of Firefox.

I wonder if an extension could be implemented that basically mimics the home tab but does it properly. It boggles the mind that they made it work the way it does, it took me one click to realise its dumb.

Didn't it used to be a settings option to stop sites messing with right click? I just looked and can't find it. Odd thing to remove if they have.

I do wonder at what point they'll give up on forcing that, are they just going to force people to use Chrome and then make Chrome use some DRM bollocks that forces the adverts to run?

The throttling with yt-dlp is usually because YouTube changed the JS and they need to update their thing to parse it and get a needed token to unlocks full speed.

Yeah, I finally got it too. What I find interesting is that I use ReVanced on my phone and the Kodi YouTube player and neither of those have an issue and I assume never will, so hopefully in the long run this won't really make much of a difference to me. Well, until Google go full on evil and force the use of Chrome or something.

Computer viking posted:Which part of it? I've said it before but I hate how they've made it so that if you press the address bar and then click one of the favourites or frequently used sites it opens a new tab rather than using the current tab, so you end up with a million tabs unless you go back and close them all. The fact that doing the same thing but typing in an address, even one that's saved doesn't do the same thing is just confusing.

Give it time, YouTube keeps changing their script almost as often as the uBlock people are updating their filters. Eventually you'll be on YouTube inbetween an update from YouTube and uBlock and get the blocking message again.

Atopian posted:It's this. I don't know when this changed, but I think they "fixed" it in a moronic way. If the site you click on from the homepage is already open, it switches to that tab. Sounds good right? It would b if it reloaded the page, but it doesn't. So you end up back on the tab you were on hours ago in the state it was hours ago forcing you to have to reload it.
