firefox 42.0 does not play youtube video

[Zoltan Hoppar]

I have noticed suddenly goes crashing when you are using html5 only.
When it trying to change the load of the stream simply on my lappie
crashing every time, and kills firefox. Under webkit based browsers
doesn't producing this. More and less for me Firefox is as it changes
version gets changes into an bloatware, so I don't use that much.
