I'm a video content creator & Firefox (my personal fav browser) consistently plays back inaccurate colors on Vimeo and other streaming destinations. Chrome & Safari playback colors match my original source videos, but Firefox injects a ton of incorrect color. My understanding is the video decoding happens in the browser, is there an awareness of this problem and are there any plans for Firefox to address this? If fixing it requires any lifting on the part of the end user that'd be disappointing since the average user will just see the incorrect video colors and move on.

The attached screengrab shows correct color in Chrome on the left, and altered Firefox color on the right.

Thanks!

Are you using a special color profile for your monitor/

Try to disable color management to test if it is caused by a problem with color management. You can set the gfx.color_management.mode pref to 0 on the about:config page to disable Color Management. You need to close and restart Firefox to make the change effective.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
