Firefox 57 video rendering issue
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4cS8prFzjY
These errors keep popping in the graphics log when video or gif is rendered wrong:
CP+[GFX1-]: [D2D1.1] 4CreateBitmap failure Size(32,24914) Code: 0x80070057 format 0
So far this only happens with gif/gifv or .mp4 or similar files, html5 youtube has no problem what so ever.

hi, thank you for reporting this. could you please try if you can replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once too?
Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
I was not able to replicate the problem in safe mode.
thank you, is there any change when you perform this?: enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named media.windows-media-foundation.use-nv12-format. double-click it and change its value to false then restart the browser once.

First impression is that it may have fixed the problem but i have to give it some time. This is little bit difficult to reproduce, almost like the browser needs to be under some use before it shows up.
Will report what happens.
thanks, in any case i think it's a problem worthy to file a bug for at bugzilla.mozila.org in case you have the time, so that it gets the attention of mozilla's developers...
