Full screen mode bug

When attempting to enter full screen mode on Firefox for Android, and to get into landscape mode, the browser appears to crash, keeps audio playing, and "entering full screen mode" dialogue pops up. Have to open Firefox again, and can only be viewed in landscape mode while session is continued. To return to non-landscape mode, the app needs to be force stopped, otherwise you only get to see the left one third side of any web page you navigate to. Seems to have started with most recent update. Is there any way to fix?

Hi

Is this with videos from YouTube?

Not specifically. This is any website with a video.

Hi

Do you have an example of a video (that is not YouTube)?

Do you have nay add-ons installed?

What level of enhanced tracking protection do you have set?

I also see this issue.

Full screen mode fails almost half of the time for me as well. Behavior after is inconsistent. Sometimes I can just reopen Firefox, others I need to force-stop. I've noticed it most frequently in private browsing mode. It was able to reproduce it in private browsing mode with the following YouTube link https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=93ZYL0GYw6E

However this seems to affect many most videos and perhaps relate to timing more than to the video itself.

This started happening a little while ago, but had not always been an issue on this phone.
