Hi guys,

I'm using the latest Firefox for android on my Samsung galaxy note 2 10.1“ tab and I have the following issue :

I open an embedded video in any site, play it fullscreen and then when I'm done I'm trying to escape full screen but it doesn't work. I'm trying the video player controls, then trying the back button of the tablet but nothing works. The video stays fullscreen and I have to kill the Firefox process and restart the app in order to continue browsing with FF. A similar issue occurs when I'm playing any video even without going into fullscreen mode - in that case I can't navigate away from the video and since it's not fullscreen I can only close the tab and reopen the site to watch other videos.

Do you know if this bug is already reported and worked on?

Thanks!

Best regards, Boyko

Hi waasp , I do not, however in order to further investigate an example url and the name of the embedded video player might help here.
