So im not really sure wtf is going on but this is very annoying.

My computer does alot of processes at a time and it starts lagging out for no reason at random times and i have nothing more running then my FF. The video will start to have some static issues and it gets worse and worse, louder and louder.

Any ideas?

Try another browser. It'll help you figure out whether it's firefox that's acting up or your entire computer.

Betas always have bugs no matter how good they say it is.

Well there you go, either downgrade to a regular full version or use another browser for the youtube use.

ah. I'm on 3.6.10 right now, no issues here. May have been something buggy about your install. But glad the beta works for you, just don't fully trust it yet. I haven't used a beta version of anything without getting disappointed somewhere down the line.

There is one things that happens to me, but I think it's Youtube himself that does that. For example, if I watch a video with 720p / 1080p in HD, it lags A LOT if it is not a Yotube Partner video. But if I watch a video with 720p / 1080p HD avaiable, and if it's a Youtube Partner video it doesn't lag. Probably Youtube does that on purpose anyway.
