Video on Youtube is so slow when it start to play on Firefox. It seems like Firefox process or convert video on Youtube. Firefox take about 5-10 seconds and then Youtbe video is played smoothly unlike the previous version of Firefox that video is not played but both of those 2 issue are bad at the same level
