I've upgraded from Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit (installed on my SSD) to Windows 10 Pro 64 bit 1909.
Since then, I've dropped frames on YouTube using Firefox at 1440p60 (VP9 308) and at 2160p (VP9 313).
I used to play them smoothly without a single frame lost using Firefox in Windows 7.
Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit is installed in my HDD on the same computer and I can play 1440p60 and 2160p without frame drops using the same Firefox version.
I've 1080p monitor, but I prefer to play higher res, because of the video quality is much better (higher bitrate).
I've tried enabling/disabling WebRender, WebGL, Hardware Acceleration. I've tried Firefox Portable, older versions and reinstalling Firefox. Nothing works...
VLC media player can play the same videos (VP9 1440p60, 2160p24to30) smoothly, no matter if I use Windows 7 or 10.
I've the latest NVIDIA drivers, and the latest Firefox version.
