We require AMD driver version greater than 12.11 beta (November 2012) on Windows 8, see {{bug|806991}}. Notice that 12.11 beta is the ''commercial'' version number. The actual check is performed on the ''technical'' version number, and we require it to be strictly higher than 9.10.8.0.


We block the OpenGL drivers on ATI cards on Windows, see {{bug|619773}}. This does not affect default functionality, as we use ANGLE instead of OpenGL by default for WebGL rendering anyway.

OpenGL layers is always disabled, no matter what configuration we're on.
WebGL is disabled for Adreno 200/205 GPUs (see {{bug|736123}}).
 
StageFright software decoding (see {{bug|759945}}) and/or hardware decoding (see {{bug|782508}}) are enabled depending on the Android version, Firefox version and device capability:

On Windows, you can also spoof your graphics system information to help debug driver blacklisting issues: see {{bug|604771}}.
On Android, to force-enable StageFright software decoding, go to about:config and set '''stagefright.force-enabled=true'''.
 
On Windows, you can also spoof your graphics system information to help debug driver blacklisting issues (see {{bug|604771}}):
# Create spoofed-firefox.bat in the installation folder (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox)
# Set the new values of spoofed variables ending with a command to launch Firefox:<br>SET MOZ_GFX_SPOOF_WINDOWS_VERSION=60001<br>SET MOZ_GFX_SPOOF_VENDOR_ID=0x8086<br>SET MOZ_GFX_SPOOF_DEVICE_ID=0x0046<br>SET MOZ_GFX_SPOOF_DRIVER_VERSION=8.15.10.2302<br>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -p -no-remote
# Double-click spoofed-firefox.bat and create a profile if required
# Click the Firefox button, then select Help, finally Troubleshooting Information and check the Graphics section.


If force-enabling a feature doesn't work, that probably means that your hardware doesn't support it. For example, layers acceleration currently requires support for 4Kx4K textures, which rules out some graphics cards, [http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-gma-3000-and-x3000-developers-guide/ like the Intel G31/G33].
