This might be a dupe of bug 1381016.

I've tried to reproduce this issue with the same scenario on latest Nightly, Chrome and Edge browser but I couldn't. 
With the try builds I can reproduce the issue. I didn't wait 5 minutes to see if the video stops (as in bug 1381016) or if the image freezes, because after a few page refreshes the video won't start at all and "uncaught exception: out of memory" error is displayed in the browser console.

Bug 1381016 has been uplifted to Beta now. Please see if the original bug still reproduces with a current CI build.

Comment 3 was a Win64 build. Below is a Win32 one if you want to try that too.

I have tried to reproduce the issue with the new build but I couldn't. The streams are working properly.
