Youtube doesn't work properly (scripts hang) when logged in with a specific account.
The last week or so, youtube doesn't work properly when logged in with a specific account. If I am not logged in or I am logged in with accounts different from the "problematic" one everything is just fine.
Upon choosing to login with the specific account, youtube page will hang for a while (A web page is slowing down your browser). After finally the login process completes, I can only play videos opened from the youtube front page. Opening a video in a new tab for example will crash the youtube page and the video doesn't play.
A video demonstrating the issue:
I have tried everything. Cleaning cookies, cache etc. The problem even happens with a brand new profile in safe-mode.
All other browsers function properly (Chome, Chromium, Konquerror).
How can I debug such a problem?
Latest version of Firefox 61.0.2 (64-bit) on ArchLinux.
When the pages stops this is the error on the console:
- !!! [Parent][DispatchAsyncMessage] Error: PClientSourceOp::Msg___delete__ Route error: message sent to unknown actor ID
- !!! [Parent][DispatchAsyncMessage] Error: PClientSourceOp::Msg___delete__ Route error: message sent to unknown actor ID

Update:
It evens happens on a different machine (I have never used) running Windows 7. What part of my account makes Firefox behave this way?
DRM playback bug. It appears to be a platform issue. Both Firefox and Chrome are generating the same license requests and we get back a reasonable license response, but Firefox is failing to playback the content.
Above picked out of another site not talking code or bug language.
It is not something I see listed as a bug being worked on (but maybe wrong) It has been in other versions and seems to be fixed when a new version or update comes out. It also could be in your add-ons, WIldvine media decoders there check there and see if showing anything wrong.
For Windows let's see what this does : uninstall Firefox. Then Delete the Mozilla Firefox Folders in C:\Program Files , C:\Program Files(x86) & C:\ProgramData Then restart system. Then run Windows Disk Cleanup. (Note: This should be Pinned and run Weekly, If never done below expect 10's of gig's) Then run it again and click the button that says Cleanup System Files. Note: your Firefox Profile is saved. But you should make a back up before you do :

Reinstall with Current Release Firefox 61.0.2 with a Full Version Installer
