Fixed - Firefox Crashes when Playing MP3s and some Videos, Vimeo and like formats

I was having an aggravating problem, with Firefox. On my Fedora 14 Linux System, for the past month or so. When I tried to play an mp3 music file on my own Web Site, http://donsongs.com/.  And on many videos on sites like this one, http://weather.climate25.com/project/nicky-sundt/. Which is a Vimeo Player. Firefox would Crash, every time. This does Not Happen in Firefox 20 or 21. I tried disabling and enabling different and all Plugins in the "about:addons" Page in Firefox. To no avail. I tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode, to disable all Firefox Addons. With no change. Finally, I found this Firefox Support Page, https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/new/desktop/fix-problems/form?search=Firefox+crashes&step=aaq-question. I wrote Firefox Support and got the answer, below. Read on for more info...

Firefox Crashes on my own web site

Posted

bp-0f555e72-2bc6-47d5-9645-3e8682150629 Firefox Crashes on my own web site, http://donsongs.com/. When clicking on my mp3 music links, on the Album Pages. Also on several other Video Web Sites. Such as this one, http://weather.climate25.com/project/nicky-sundt/. This only happens in my Fedora 14 Linux System. And has been going on, for the last month or more. Both Firefox 38.0.5 and Firefox Developers Addition, Crash, when I access these files. I have no problems in Fedora 20 or 21, in my other Systems. I keep Flash and Java up to Date. I've tested, this with all Plugins set to "Ask to Activate". And with VLC - Totem and OpenH264, set to 'Always Active", as well as other variations. This makes no difference. I have also tested this in Firefox Safe Mode, with no change. The Crashes still happen. I wanted to ask, and see if you have any other ideas. Before I try doing a "Firefox Refresh". I don't want to have to start over and Reinstall everything, if I can fix this...

Thanks,

Don

Chosen solution

Firefox will try to plays MP3s natively, without a plugin, using Gstreamer. Looking at the "crashing thread" in the report you linked, Firefox seems to be trying to do that when it crashes.

If Firefox's Gstreamer implementation isn't compatible with that version of Fedora, you probably can disable it using a preference in about:config. As a Windows user, I don't know exactly what to look for, but I can see the source code contains one called media.gstreamer.enabled that you could toggle to false and see whether that helps.
