Mozilla Firefox 160.0

New

• The Picture-in-Picture player now has a playback speed setting, with options ranging from 0.25x to 2.0x speed. The setting appears only when the player window is medium-sized or larger.
• Mini Window moves a tab or a selected part of a page into an always-on-top window while browsing. We’d appreciate feedback on Mozilla Connect as we develop and improve this early version of the feature.
• History entries can now be dragged from the sidebar to the tab strip to open them in new tabs.
• The address bar context menu now shows "Paste and Search" instead of "Paste and Go" when the copied text is a search term rather than a web address.
• Pages saved as PDF now make mathematical content (MathML) accessible to assistive technology such as screen readers.
• Websites that repeatedly ask to handle email (mailto:) and other links can now be blocked with a new “Never allow” button, and blocked sites can be managed in Settings.
• Firefox now plays Matroska (MKV) files with FLAC, MP3, or PCM audio.
• WebGL content on macOS is now rendered using Apple’s Metal graphics API, which can improve performance on some sites.
• In Smart Window, Organize Tabs is now available in French. Firefox can suggest groups of related open tabs and name each group in French.

Fixed

• Various security fixes. fixes, see the Firefox Enterprise release notes. For policy changes, see the Firefox admin docs changelog.
• Fixed the first character typed into the address bar or search bar sometimes being lost when typing quickly right after clicking into it.
• Increased the contrast between the domain name and the rest of the address in the address bar, making it easier to see which website is open.
• Fixed Firefox freezing for several seconds when signing in to intranet sites that use NTLM or Kerberos (Negotiate) authentication.
• Fixed double-tapping or long-pressing a word to select it, and tapping to place the cursor, not working near the cursor in text fields.
• Fixed links opened in the background from other apps on macOS, such as RSS readers, bringing Firefox to the foreground.
• Fixed downloaded files on macOS sometimes opening in the wrong application instead of the default one set in Finder.
• Fixed simultaneous downloads on macOS never finishing when Firefox is set to ask where to save files. Only the first file showed a save dialog.
• Restored meaningful filenames and the usual save workflow for PDFs opened in Preview from the macOS print dialog.

Web Platform

• The SpeechRecognition interface of the Web Speech API is now supported, providing on-device, real-time speech-to-text in 40 languages.
• Firefox now supports the legacy ::-webkit-input-placeholder pseudo-element as an alias of ::placeholder, to improve compatibility with websites that use it to style placeholder text.
