firefox, 106.0.5, 64bit problems with youtube short videos.

Only plays the first video. No other video in the list will play. This is a new problem.

Chosen solution

Problem solved:

I normally keep my zoom level at 120% so I can read the text on websites. If I reduce the zoom level to about 80% then the sequential videos will play. Must have something to do with whether or not the entire thumbnail is in the screen(?)

YouTube changed the layout and size of the thumbnails recently. That's when the problem started.

Thanks for the assist.

I know about the arrows. It will take me to the next video short but it will not play the video. Clicking the pause / start button on the next video also has no effect.

No difference in safe mode. I use Windows security.
