High CPU Usage on HTML 5 YouTube
I have a dual-graphics laptop with the newest release version of Firefox, the newest Intel HD drivers, and newest AMD drivers. Intel HD 5500, i7 5500U, AMD R9 M275X. YouTube uses about 60% of the CPU when running 1080p video using HTML5. I also have a desktop computer with a GTX 670 and i7 3770k and Firefox literally uses about 2% when running 1080p video. Something is up here. The videos are perfectly responsive, but it really hogs the battery and causes significant heating.

you could try the following: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named gfx.crash-guard.status.d3d9video. double-click it and change its value to 2. in addition, i'd also recommend to reset all custom preferences (=shown in bold) starting with "network.http" to their respective default value.

thank you, this bit seems to be the problem:
Supports Hardware H264 Decoding: No; DXVA2D3D9 crashes detected in the past
you could try the following: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named gfx.crash-guard.status.d3d9video. double-click it and change its value to 2. in addition, i'd also recommend to reset all custom preferences (=shown in bold) starting with "network.http" to their respective default value.
This seems to have reduced CPU usage to about 25% at max which is a lot better. Thank you. Still not 2% but it's certainly a lot nicer.
(Also, I changed the network setting because some website say it makes Firefox faster on better internet connections. Is that just flat out wrong?)
as it is a dual gpu sytem you could also look into it if it is possible to have your nvidia gpu take over the part of rendering firefox (that may perhaps be more efficient in regards to media playback). and those recommendations to speed-up firefox at some sites are often experimental and can cause more harm than good so i'd rather dissuade you from following them...
It's an AMD GPU for the laptop and I'd change it if I could but AMD thinks they know better and lock it to the integrated GPU.
