After upgrading to FF50, playback on YT video's is broken.
The audio plays fine, but the video is stuck in a loop of the first seconds of the stream.
Anyone else having this issue?

No problem here. Do you use flash version or html5 Youtube version? With html5 i don't have any problem.

It is with HTML5-video, also see no reports on the bugtracker. Maybe a HWAccel issue?

Same issue here...

I have to be honest, I love FF, but lately it's getting slow. Using Chrome more, and it's much faster and works with Netflix.

Same issue here too. But I did make changes with the HWAccel settings. I have rold back to 49 for now

Does it happen for all videos? If for particular ones which codec is in use?
Is e10 active or not? ( see about:support Multiprocess Windows )
Is this under X11 or Wayland?
What GPU are you using, which kernel module, which X11 driver if applicable?

Me too rolled back to 49. Anyway:
Does it happen for all videos?
sorry but I only checked on youtube
If for particular ones which codec is in use?
I have html5 enabled
Is e10 active or not? ( see about:support Multiprocess Windows )
Multi-process staged rollout Ver.1.3 enabled
Is this under X11 or Wayland?
X11
What GPU are you using, which kernel module, which X11 driver if applicable?

Just checked and the problem is not always there but it will randomly start and ones it does it will effect all videos. At least all the ones that I have tested and only until you restart firefox.
GPU = Nvidia, with proprietary nvidia driver.
X11
No e10 sadly.

Can confirm.
Tested with various Html5 videos on different websites, all have the described playback issue. X11, modesetting, Intel driver, e10s is disabled, hwaccel on or off has no effect.

https://www.youtube.com/html5 does it show all options supported?
Edit:
Looking at the responses does not appear to be limited to one X11 driver or one GPU.
I can not produced the issue on my system with the nvidia driver checked both webm and h264 both checked with and without e10s enabled.

Can you produce the issue using a new profile
$ firefox -P
Are you using an AUR package such as ffmpeg-git to provide ffmeg?
Offline
I only know for YT how to check the codec. It's vp9. I am using ffmpeg's internal vp9 implemetations, not libvpx.
A clean profile does not solve the issue.
I tried firefox-beta-bin from AUR, which uses the same profile I use for FF50, and it seems to work fine.
EDIT: No, I was just lucky. firefox-beta has the same issue.

Ok, created a new profile and now youtube is properly working!
(no AUR for ffmpeg)
Thank You!

I created a new profile and still have the same problem.
But it did fix an issue that I was having with the menu not working.

Have disabled the integrated OpenH264 in Firefox.
about:config
media.gmp-provider.enabled from true -> false
Now the VP9 videos are working smooth (tested on youtube and vimeo)

That worked for me.
Thanks.

Strange, just checked my config and it's set as "true", though Youtube and Vimeo VP9s play smooth
Just FYI

@MeMi69 The OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems, Inc. should only be being used for webrtc and obviously not for vp9 content, this would seem to be a bug you should report upstream.
Are you certain the videos you tried were vp9 not h264? (on youtube you can check using the right click menu information for geeks )
If the content is vp9 does setting media.mediasource.webm.enabled and media.webm.enabled to false to force the content to h264 still result in looping video with media.gmp-provider.enabled set back to true?

Weird:
I had just gone back to my default firefox profile to see if it could be "recovered" (maybe cleaning some extensions, etc) and, to my surprise, Youtube was working ok.
Closed the tab, coming back to this thread to report the strange happening, on a second check - new tab - the same videos now go in loop

@loqs
Yes! your are right. Was not a vp9 video...
I have switched the values in config back to default.
Have the same problem like Eko2016.
After a switch or "reset" of the profile I am able to play videos.
If I restart FF or open a video in new tab, the video goes in loop...
very weird...

Wow (one day later), thought I was the only one.
It does happen at random, and also with a clean profile.
Audio plays fine, but video playback is broken.
Info:
- AMD R7 290 (radeon driver)
- HWAccel is (force-)enabled, but had no issues in <FF50
- Latest updates installed
- A clean profile doesn't make a differ
