Youtube Inline Playback fail

I am unable to disable the Inline Playback on YouTube when using Firefox ver 115.2.0esr (64-bit).

The Inline Playback is set to : Off

But when hovering the mouse of the thumbnail video it starts playing the video.

Is the another setting to disable Inline Playback when using Firefox?

That's from a search is a Google tool not a Firefox function. Did you contact youtube support about this playback issue?

Disabling the youtube account setting "Inline playback" works for me. It stops thumbnails from showing the full video with the seek bar on hover and instead they only show a short preview animation.

The problem is fixable via Firefox about:config
