For some Youtube videos I play, the video freezes, although the audio continues.  If I scroll the page, the video updates while I'm scrolling, but stops again when I stop.  It seems unrelated to the page on which I'm viewing the video, and unfortunately the most recent time I've seen this was in a google reader entry, so I can't give you a reproducible URL for it.

I haven't managed to find any other patterns in the behavior.

This behavior is new in Firefox 19.0.

Very weird to see this when I came in to report the exact same issue with 89.0b11 8 years after this bug submission.
Didn't have it occur for me before trying the beta for the first time.

Attached file about:support
I see this too. It happens very frequently with Twitch, but I also noticed it on some other services.

My system also has an Nvidia card, maybe that's the culprit? Pasting my about:support below:
