RedGajin:
what addons do you have enabled? does this happen with a fresh install with Firefox or only after you enable certain addons?
also is this the add on you already tried: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/h264ify/ ?

currently, i only have uBlock installed. disabling uBlock works with non-60fps videos, but when moving to a 60fps video without uBlock it's choppy
chrome with uBlock has no issues whatsoever.

thanks for actually giving me a reason this time :v
testing waterfox with the old layout and uBlock enabled is fine.
reverted to new layout, pages load somewhat slower, but playback is smooth on 60fps 1080p
also the design of waterfox is p cool with dark theme enabled
thanks hoot
