Is anyone else getting an error message while playing YouTube videos on Firefox 34?

 

 

I have downgraded to Firefox 33 due to this issue.

 

 

I also have the latest version of Flash.

 

 

 

Thanks,

No issues here, Firefox 34.0.5, Windows 10 (build 9789).

Working fine here (Fx 34, Flash 16) -- personally I usually keep Flash disabled though, prefer using the HTML5 player instead. I use FlashToggle to turn it on for when I actually need it, but YouTube isn't one of them.

With Waterfox, I get this YouTube buffering clogging issue once awhile and the only way to watch YouTube again, I would have to exit Waterfox and then go to Task Manager to kill its process from computer.  With Firefox, I do not encounter the buffering clogging problem but there are at times, if I use both Media Player Classic - Home Cinema while trying to control the audio, I will get no audio from both MPC-HC and YouTube video.  No I do not have any Adobe product installed.  At this point, if I want to hear the audio again, I just have to restart Firefox.

My issue with FF is when I do a search from the search bar, a lot of times FF locks up and I cannot click on anything for 30 seconds or so.  Annoying as hell.

Used Firefox since first release, never had that issue.

 

Sounds like an add-on issue, or an add-on has screwed with the user profile.

Nope. Happens with addons disabled and extensions disabled.  Happened with release 34

I attached the screen-shot of the issue...................it only occurs when selecting a link from the down down bar where you enter addresses. When selecting a link in YouTube itself, it loads just fine.

    • Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.
    • Yeah Patchou was an active member here, good ol' times indeed.
    • Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
