it should keep saving jpegs to the same file until I choose a different file (during the same session) but every few files it randomly changes the "save to" location folder

Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.
