Hi DRK,

What are the other browsers you use that do have the Windows Media Overlay enabled? From my understanding, this overlay has only been integrated on a few select browsers, so it could be that it isn't completely integrated with Firefox.

Would you be able to attach a screenshot of the overlay on another browser?

I believe this feature is only integrated in Chrome, Edge, and some Chromium-based browsers, so this is why it is not showing the overlay on Firefox.

Will it be possible to firefox in future?

Hi DRK,

Sorry for such a delayed response.

Unfortunately, I am not entirely sure on what development plans are moving forward regarding this, so I cannot say one way or the other on if it will be added.
