SpeedGem posted:I figured it out, VLC plugin was causing trouble, now all gifs load. You were right, a bad plugin ruins the batch. I don't even use VLC but still had this installed and activated for some reason. What's worse is that I made a bunch of new profiles trying to find the problem and the VLC plugin was still installed and activated even in the totally fresh profile. Which might be why I kept having the problem resurface  Well, let's see how we go. EDIT: Nope, VLC wasn't it. Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 08:21 on May 5, 2015 |

Ema Nymton posted:Firefox's new hardware acceleration is hard on my GPU for some reason, and has made it slow as poo poo for over a month. After trying so many fixes on my PC and updating drivers and BIOS I finally figured out it was the hardware acceleration. I didn't know I needed a killer rig to browse the internet. v I've been having so many drat problems with Firefox recently and have come to the conclusion it might be, in part, my graphics card. It's 5 years old and I recently started noticing it was playing up in other areas, too. Weird fan noises, occasionally the screens would go black and the drivers crash, random slowdowns. I've just ordered a new mid-range card and having Firefox work again would be a huge bonus. Suppose I'll find out in a few days.

Geemer posted:Looks like it also fixed the poo poo with images not loading anymore, at least according to the release notes. I'm on the developer version, 38.0.5 and am still seeing this issue. Unless they've fixed it in the stable release but not the beta channel version. The way my luck's been lately, it wouldn't surprise me. Which would mean I'd have to (I think) uninstall the beta, download the stable version and create a new profile and set everything back up. Again

PC LOAD LETTER posted:Hrrm FF just updated to 38.0.1 and it seems to have fixed the issue with the .gifs not loading properly. At least in the quick n' dirty browsing through the PYF thread I just did. I have the EME free version though. VLC plugin 2.2.1.0 is installed too. Over in the Schadenfreude thread, user Anarchist Mae posted a great gresemonkey/tampermonkey extension he wrote which: - Prevents images from breaking out of tables. - Turns imgur and flickr thumbnails into full sized images. - Wraps imgur and flickr images with links to the original image. - Turns GIF images on imgur into GIFV style videos. It's that last one that's important. All those 50MB gifs now turn into 0.5MB gifvs.

Cross posting this, because goddamn someone finally decided to fix the issue of big images killing Firefox: Forums user Anarchist Mae has written a great script for anyone who views the image threads. It automatically looks for gifv and webm versions of images which means no more opening a page with a dozen 50MB gifs and killing your computer. Something Awful Image Fixes 1.3.0 It also does other things, like resize thumbnails, too. For the first time in almost two months, I have been able to view the gif thread in PYF without Firefox having an aneurism.

astral posted:Huh, not visiting those threads I guess I underestimated just how much automatic gif->video replacement might help users. I'll bump up its priority for SALR, in that case. It was kind of a perfect (poo poo)storm which caused it all. Firefox has never been all that great at handling memory and a couple of updates ago brought in a bug where a single large image on a page would stop every other image from loading. Then usually crash the browser because even closing the tab wouldn't stop memory use from going up. At the same time, image hosting sites like Imgur and Gfycat removed their 2MB files size restriction and people stopped optimising their gifs and started posting tonnes of 50MB gifs inline. Even 250MB gifs Cue Firefox falling over like a cheap drunk on ice.I originally thought it was just me thanks to some unrelated hardware issues I had at the time, but lots of other people started posting about their Firefox crashing or not loading, too. Now sites like Imgur offer automatic conversion of large gifs but a lot of people are ignoring it because Firefox doesn't inline these file by default. TLDR: Thanks for bumping up the priority

WattsvilleBlues posted:I'll give Origin a go then, I keep blocking People You May Know on Facebook and it keeps coming back. Are you using Ctrl-click when you create the filter? I had that problem until I realised that uBock normally only creates the filter for the page you make it on. But, when you select the People You May Know, if you ctrl-click on that line in the popup box it adds wildcards that block that item on any page it appears.

Select the eyedropper and then ctrl-click on what you want to get rid of. Using the control keys adds a wildcard which removes the add from every page.

Firefox used to have some extensions which turned multiple pages into a single, easily scrollable, one. They were called AutoPager Fixed and AutoPagerize. Neither work anymore. Does anyone know of some good alternatives?

Is there a specific download I need for the 64bit version? My Firefox just upgraded itself to v42.0, but I'm guessing that's still just 32bit? I've seen a couple of download sites for a 64bit version but got some seriously shonky vibes off them. Like, why would Mozilla not host the file on their own servers, right?

I'm seeing something really weird on forum pages with lots of images. Some text and images fail to show up, but if I just move my mouse cursor over a gif, everything reappears instantly. It's totally reproducible, which is good because it saves having to reload pages, but having it happen at all is annoying because not every page has someone with an animated avatar. Also, animated gang tags under the avatars don't cause things to reappear, so I'm damned if I know what's going on there.

To add to what astral said, open about :config and set "xpinstall.signatures.required" to false. Firefox does say doing this is all at your own risk, as it leaves you open to malware from dodgy add-ons.

So I'm still getting this weird bug in Firefox where, after it's been open for a few hours and I open a thread with images in it, none of the the text in the posts will load unless I mouseover an animated avatar. I finally managed to capture it with gooncam:  Annoying as hell in some threads where no-one has an animated avatar. Even the stupid newbie avatar is unanimated now.

Nalin posted:If it is a font issue, do you perhaps have uBlock installed? There is an option in uBlock to block remote fonts. Okay, I clicked the font button and now it's crossed out. Does that mean I'm now blocking remote fonts or have I stopped blocking remote fonts? Sir Unimaginative posted:You probably noticed that the font is falling back to some other font when you do that. (I'd bet it's browser default and you can check by changing the default sans-serif font in Preferences/Content.) Well, I've changed it to comic sans so I'll know for goddamn sure when it happens if its falling back to the default.

lightinwater posted:http://www.ghacks.net/2016/03/03/beware-firefox-add-on-youtube-unblocker-put-on-blocklist/ Ah god loving dammit! Youtube Unblocker was a good extension for anyone not in the US. Now it's gone to poo poo and turned evil. This is why I started getting weird proxy error messages when clicking on links from google searches for sites I knew were good. EDIT - Well I tried the advice in the article (except doing a full refresh) and it didn't work. Google is still giving me ads masquerading as links which go through "xg4ken.com". Damned if I can find any addons which I haven't installed myself, though. Looks like it's time for a refresh  DOUBLE EDIT - Okay, by closing Firefox and manually editing prefs.js to the settings mentioned in the article, I've got Firefox to stop resetting all its about :config settings every time I open it. This is good. But I still get a drat ad which sets off my uBlock filters whenever I type in something popular like, "goldcoast seaworld" A full Windows Defender scan also found this:  -------------------------- Final edit (with any luck) - okay, so manually resetting prefs.js and running Defender cleaned out the poo poo Youtube Unblocker put on my system, but I also had to go and reset a bunch of uBlock preferences because they got all janked up too. Now things look to be working okay and the nuclear 'refresh' option has been put back into its silo for the moment. Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Mar 3, 2016 |

What's the best right click image search extension? To be on the safe side, I tossed out a bunch of extensions after YouTube Unblocker went evil and I need a nice right click image search extension. I thought it would be simple, but there are a tonne of extensions on Mozilla's site, most of which have "google image search" as a title and they range from the useless to the 'handy and well put together, but also searches hentai and cartoon pony porn databases'. Literally. I'm not kidding here. What have people had good luck with?

Older versions work. You can use version 2.4.3 and it works fine. From the SALR thread: jaydee864 posted:There was an update to Snap Links recently which disables any configuration settings and forces you to use the default. You can manually revert to 2.4.3 from the version list on the addon page: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/snaplinksplus/versions/ Also, make sure you disable automatic updates.
