Here we go again, tvguide.com won't display right

Post by Domapoi »

Ok, Just downloaded the latest firefox update (because the auto update never works) and after installing, when I go tvguide.com it only displays it in a lower resolution than what I have my monitor set to. Because of that I can't get the video that displays what is going on tonight to minimize and so it covers the whole page and can't see the listings. It works just fine using Internet Explorer and Chrome (both of which I hate) but not in firefox. It did until this latest update. Just like the problem I had with the previous version when it was updated but then it was the Wunderground.com page that would not display because your web browser had blacklisted my video drivers even though there was no newer version for my system. I checked the about:config setting and the changes made then are still in place. Wunderground.com still works this time and seems to only be causing problems with the tvguide.com website this time.

There's a small downward caret at the top right of that annoying video that allows one to collapse it to get it out of the way.
What do you have your monitor set to?
To what video driver are you referring?
Does the same thing occur if you launch the application in Mozilla Safe Mode? http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode
