Hi,

After last update of Mozzilla, I have a problem with YouTube player. Everything is ok when watching on YT site, but when i'm looking on other sites, that have videos uploaded from YT, player is changing for worst, buggy one. How to set-up same, normal YouTube player on every site? Hope screenshot will help u understand the problem.

I just have problems with this "new" player on other sites, because when im dragging my mouse down on fullscreen, it does not show the status bar, which is very irritating + the arrow rewind is set up, to time diffrent than normal 5 sec YT.

Youtube currently uses the HTML5 player. But other websites might not. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fix-common-audio-and-video-issues
