Videos in Youtube play laggy in 1080p 60fps and twitch too. I've tried enabling/disabling hardware acceleration. I don't have flash installed.

Dear,DarkMT: I assume that other video formats are fine. So the problem is only with 1080 and 60ps.

Hope this helps you . Regards!

I doesn't work but thanks anyways. The square that says "MSE & WebM VP9 " is unchecked. I've tried fresh install; it's just the new update. The video lags when i set it to 1080p manually. Also, the addon doesn't work.

Dear, DarkMT. Okay, try changing the next preferences on about:config : media.mediasource.enabled media.mediasource.webm.enabled Both should be on true. Succes?

media.mediasource.webm.enabled was in false. Now it's true. It works better but it still lags. Thanks !
