Tabs on Firefox crashes whenever I have HTML5 running in the background

After I've updated the Firefox browser to 50.0, I started having issues browsing multiple tabs. Whenever I have a tab that runs HTML5 (Youtube video or Twitch stream), and I'm on other tabs browsing, there is a high chance that my tabs crashes.

It doesn't happen in Safe mode, but even after I've manually disabled the few addons I have, it still crashes (I have no theme to my browser).

When I ran the system file check, I got the message "Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."

I did have updates for my graphics card drivers, which was found through Geforce Experience, but it didn't solve my problem. Even after I had installed them, I still got crashes.

This is just a suggestion, Install an older version of Firefox {web link} Look for the directory of the version that you want. But remember that old versions may have security issues.

please do not downgrade to an older version. if the crashes didn't stop with a driver update, please disable d3d11 dxva video playback support in firefox to work around this type of crash: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named media.windows-media-foundation.allow-d3d11-dxva. double-click it and change its value to false and restart firefox once.

I found that after I downloaded the latest drivers for my graphics card, it wasn't until after I rebooted my computer with the drivers already installed, that the tabs crashing stopped happening.

That was very good work. Well done.
