Since last few days, I am unable to play youtube (m.youtube.com) and other (cnbc) videos properly in FF. When I play Youtube videos in FF, 50% of the video viewing area is greyed out. The top part of the video is also greyed out. I can see 25% of the video in the middle area. The video is black and white and not in color. I don't know what changed within FF (extension/plugins) that I am unable to play videos properly. The audio seems to be ok.

I don't have this problem playing Youtube videos in Chrome or Samsung Galaxy S3's stock browser.

Anything with Adobe Flash or HTML5 that might have caused this?

Thank you.

This is a known issue with Firefox 53. We did not hear about this until after we released. The team is working on fixing the issue.

I saw the issue two days prior to May 1 update of FF to 53.0.1.

I have another device with Android 7. And YouTube video works fine. So the problem is impacting Android 4.4 and possibly other older Android versions

The issue is still there in 53.0.2. I hope this issue is fixed soon.
