I am listening to a radio station on line. Its an iHeart station, but I don't log into iHeart to play and hear it. Firefox seems to accumulate the audio into memory and when it finally fills it up, Firefox closes down and shows an error message that it has encountered a problem and has shutdown. System is Windows XP, SP3 with 2GB of memory. Only other programs operating simultaneously are SnagIt (a small screen capture program) and Windows task manager. Firefox version 52.5.0 esr (32bit).

I did not have this problem with Firefox 43.0.1 which allowed an add-on that cleared memory. That add-on does not work in 52.5.0.

Please advise.

Maybe modify some media.cache_ prefs on the about:config page. They are quite large in Firefox 52 ESR

  • media.cache_readahead_limit (ESR52:999999; 57:60)
  • media.cache_resume_threshold (ESR52:999999; 57:30)

See the comments in the Firefox source code about these prefs.
