Vertical green stripe in videos after Firefox update

Seems to happen every time there's a Firefox update -- videos have a wide vertical green stripe in them. Yep, I do have some add-ons/add-ins (not many and very popular ones). I'd rather not go through the cha-cha-cha of seeing if one is causing the problem. I've turned off video acceleration to no avail.

Mozilla needs to fix this persistent problem.

I'm running Windows 10 and the absolute latest version of FF, as it updates itself automatically.

Need a fix, or going back to Chrome which never has this problem.

See if this helps;

Type in the address bar about:config (press Enter) (promise to be careful if asked) Type in the search bar and look for the preference : media.wmf.dxva.d3d11.enabled And set its value to false. After, restart Firefox.
