Youtube Live streaming issue
I just started having an issue while watching Live Streams on Youtube with FireFox. I'll load the live stream and it will run for about a minute then it will switch to the streamers previous recorded stream. I opened Youtube on my iPad and on Edge browser and the Live stream keeps playing the live stream but on FireFox it only lets it run for about a minute before flipping the playback to the previous recorded video of that streamer. I tried clearing my cache for Youtube and I have no extensions running. I have Youtube Premium and run no adblockers. I have also tried safe mode but the problem persists.
Any idea what could be happening?

What stream? Do you have the same issue with Firefox in Troubleshoot Mode? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/diagnose-firefox-issues-using-troubleshoot-mode#w_how-to-start-firefox-in-4troubleshoot-modesf5safe-modesf

Hi...Thanks for the reply. I didn't know about Troubleshooting mode. I tried that and the live streaming issue didn't reoccur. I saw it said to try to disable Hardware Acceleration so I turned that off and for now it appears to have fixed the problem. I will try to update my Nvidia drivers and test out turning the acceleration back on but if that's the problem, I'll just turn it off.
Appreciate the help. I may be back if it reoccurs.
