Multiple Browsers at the same Time

[sloemoe 0]

I often have the problem of video stalling momentarily every 10 seconds or so. When I check "Task Manager" there will be 5 or 6 Fire Fox browsers running at the same time. Can FF be set to run only one instance? When I close them and reopen Emby the problem is gone.

HI, I guess this is a firefox question. Have you tried Chrome for comparison purposes?

Having multiple ff processes is normal.

All browsers multi process these days.

Edge with 7 tabs is showing 21 process

Chrome with 6 tabs is showing 17 process

Just launching FF to the landing page shows 5 processes.

Maybe it depends on the number of streams running? I may max at 3 normally. My Linux Raspberry Pi 3 server handles 5 streams at 480p/576p pretty well. I have 40 libraries and about 800 titles. No other issues, very pleased!!
