I would say that for the past two-three weeks I've been having a problem where my Youtube volume in Firefox is extremely low. In order to hear anything really I have to have my Windows volume at 100%, my speaker volume maxed out, and Youtube volume at its highest.

I Watched the exact same youtube video in chrome and its so LOUD! I had to turn my windows volume to 50% and my speakers way down and it was still louder than Firefox. I searched for similar issues and found one that exactly matched my problem, I even followed the suggested steps to fixing the issue at hand but nothing has worked.

Steps completed so far: -Fresh install -Cleared cookies, cache, site preferences and offline data -re installing flash -Cleared flash cookies and settings

I dont want to abandon firefox but this issue is extremely annoying and there doesnt seem to be a logical fix available. Any help is appreciated.

hello Ryanrob17, please refer to What to do if Firefox won't play any sounds.

Have you made sure the volume slider (speaker icon) on the Youtube video while viewing in Firefox is not turned down close to mute?

Philip,

I want to thank you for your suggestion. There was an issue where the volume for the Firefox application was turned down extremely low resulting in the issue at hand. I have since corrected this thanks to you!

James,

I appreciate you trying to help but I explained in my question that I had the YouTube volume up to 100%.

You stated you had your Windows volume at 100%.

Just mentioned in case you overlooked on what the volume level you had the slider on youtube videos at.

I'll quote my self here "I have to have my Windows volume at 100%, my speaker volume maxed out, and Youtube volume at its highest."

I'm just clarifying my original post and not trying to argue. My problem was fixed and I thank you for trying.
