Afternoon folks,

I'm having a little trouble with Firefox at the moment as when ever I log in to Youtube the format seems a little screwed up.

The top section where it shows Google account details and stuff like My channel seems to scroll down when ever I scroll down but it overlaps all the videos so you can't actually click them.

I've tried restarting in safe mode which seems to fix the problem and then I've tried disabling all the plugins 1 by 1 but it still doesn't resolve the issue.

Any advice folks?

Edit: Forgot to say that this doesn't happen in any other browser.
 
Same thing happened to me last week. I still don't know what the cause was. What i did do was save all my bookmarks and prefs, then installed Waterfox and imported my prefs and bookmarks. Everything is back to normal now, so worth giving it a try if you are running a 64bit OS. I have now uninstalled Firefox, Waterfox is faster and hasn't given me any problems so far.
 
Thanks for the advice mate, I went with Waterfox but unfortunately it's the same problem.
I think what I'm going to have to do is uninstall Firefox completely and Waterfox, save my prefs and everything then try a brand new install.
Hopefully that should solve it, but it's seriously very frustrating as the only thing I can remember changing is my graphics card and that surely shouldn't make a difference.
 
Right a quick update.

After removing all of Firefox and Waterfox, I reinstalled everything only for the problem to appear again, I did however notice that it only happened after I installed a dark theme for Youtube.

This is what causes the issue and it looks like it's probably because it's not compatible with the new Firefox.
Anyway we now know :)
