User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux aarch64; rv:89.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/89.0

Steps to reproduce:

Raspberry pi4, 8GiB RAM, Ubuntu 20.04 64bit, install Firefox 89 then watch videos on youtube

Actual results:

On 2021.06.03 then automaic updater installed Firefox 89 over Firefox 88. Previosly did'nt happen any problem with video watching, but after the upgrade youtube (and other) videos is noisy, ugly, pixelized (see attachments).
I've wont changed any settings in Firefox or the OS. Firefox hardware acceleration is on, but turning it off not solving the problem.

Sample images from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sKpAvWucBI

Expected results:

Clear videos such as Firefox 88.

I can reproduce this Bug on Ubuntu 21.04 with my raspberry pi 4B 4GB.

Hi sg and b.schuldheis. Thanks for the bug report.

Could you please attach a copy of your about:support information from version 89. If possible, if you could reinstall 88 and attach a copy of about:support from there too that would be really helpful. Thanks!

I think this is probably an issue rendering video on Software Webrender on Arm Linux. I'm going to close this as a duplicate of bug 1714511, please follow there for updates.
