Firefox doesn't use hardware decoding on Linux and FreeBSD but it may use OpenGL or XRender compositing. Flash plugin is an exception, with nvidia-driver you may need to symlink /usr/local/etc/vdpau_wrapper.cfg to /compat/linux/etc/vdpau_wrapper.cfg. Otherwise, try reproducing in a pristine jail with default binary packages and fresh profile. Which KMS, DDX and DRI driver? If in doubt try using vesa (BIOS) or scfb (UEFI) with llvmpipe. I can't help much with x11@ issues due to lack of hardware. What FreeBSD release/architecture is affected? For one, my testing on i386 is hindered by https://github.com/FreeBSDDesktop/freebsd-base-graphics/issues/166 but llvmpipe seems to work fine. > I checked mplayer -- playing videos with it works fine.

Check other video players e.g, mpv, vlc and something GStreamer-based. _______________________________________________ freebsd-gecko@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-gecko To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-gecko-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
