Firefox 157 Released With a Visual Refresh and Hardware AV1 Decode for WebRTC
Translated by a model; the original is in Russian.
Mozilla has shipped Firefox 157, the latest build of its open-source browser, bringing a visual refresh and support for hardware AV1 decoding in WebRTC.
Mozilla has released Firefox 157, with binaries of the new version of its open-source browser now available for download. The release arrives as part of Mozilla's usual cadence, under which fresh Firefox versions land roughly every two weeks.
Among the notable changes is a visual refresh of the interface. Firefox 157 also adds support for hardware AV1 video decoding in WebRTC, which offloads work from the CPU when handling such video streams by tapping the graphics hardware.
The full list of changes is detailed in the accompanying release materials. The update is distributed through the usual channels, and existing installations will pick up the new version in the normal way.
