How do you fix scaling issue with any video playback control bar (too small to see) on Firefox 28?
Using a 3200x1800 dpi resolution lap top (Samsung Ultrabook 9 series), when I want to play videos on a webpage, the playback control bar (runs across the bottom of a given video for settings like play, pause, sound level, etc.) is too small to see. I tried scaling using various methods, Windows 8.1 OS, Firefox ad-ons like No squint with no success. Of course, these tools work to rescale everything else but the playback control bar. This is not a problem on IE as when you rescale, everything including the playback control bar rescales. Thanks

You can set the layout.css.devPixelsPerPx pref on the about:config page to 1.0 or on Windows 8 to 1.25 and if necessary adjust layout.css.devPixelsPerPx starting from 1.0 in 0.1 or 0.05 steps (1.1 or 0.9) to make icons show correctly.

You can look at the Default FullZoom Level or NoScript extension if web pages need to be adjusted after changing layout.css.devPixelsPerPx.

Hello: I tried all the options above. They all work to scale text and images but not certain items such as the video playback bar (runs across the bottom the video), x and y axis font size on yahoo stock charts, all of the control tabs to customize the charts, etc. Again, this is all scaled perfectly on Internet Explorer.
My experience is telling me that Yahoo needs to reconfigure their browser to scale these items for a high dpi screen. I don't know if there is anything else I can do.
I think you're referring to text inside a plugin, such as Flash. Firefox might be sending suggestions to the content in the plugin, but I think ultimately the developer of the Flash media (Yahoo?) needs to handle the resizing.
Note: The Flash player on IE is an ActiveX control with a different interface than the Firefox plugin.

What you wrote makes sense to me and I appreciate the response. The question is when will Mozilla fix this issue. I believe more people will be complaining about this issue as more high DPI computers are being bought and used.
BTW, what is the name of the Firefox plugin?
I'm not a Flash developer, so I don't know what the options currently are or whether there is anything Mozilla can do.
In Firefox, the Flash player plugin appears as "Shockwave Flash".
I should add that other users have reported this problem with the Yahoo Finance Flash media as well. For example: fonts in graphs don't scale using firefox with Win 8. Hopefully someone will mention it to Yahoo!
Shockwave Flash is Adobe's, correct? How do I communicate to Yahoo the problem? If the problem resides with Adobe Shockwave, then shouldn't I and others having this problem direct the issue to Adobe?
Sorry, I don't know whether it's a limitation of the Flash plugin or a failure to use available features on the part of Yahoo.
