Seeing a green stripe on a media player usually means that the player overlay isn't fully covering the (green) space that Firefox reserve.

You can try to set this pref to false on the about:config page.

  • media.wmf.dxva.d3d11.enable = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.


You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.

Close and restart Firefox after modifying the setting for changes to take effect.

You can check if there is an update for your graphics display driver and check for hardware acceleration related issues.
