Videos stuttering on Firefox android

more options

All videos have been stuttering on the Firefox app on my S24 ultra, and it only occurs after the video buffers or I play the video after pausing it. The video will stutter and play as if it is a 5fps video, with no audible effects on the audio itself. The video will stop stuttering when I mute it, or after I fast forward/backwards. After I do either of the two, my video goes back to not stuttering and it plays smoothly again.

I suspect the issue is related to the audio video sync on Firefox on Samsung devices. I've tried to replicate the same issue on my Xiaomi devices, but they just do not persistently stutter like on my Samsung phone. All they do is stutter for a few seconds, then continue the video smoothly.

Not sure what the issue is exactly, and is there a possible fix to make the video never stutter at all? This has been pretty persistent, happening even when I had my S21 ultra years ago.
