does firefox do video smoothing?

I use invidious for youtube watching. and I set the resolution to 480p (because of my internet) I have noticed for sometime that the video looks more smooth and less pixel-y than before. but when I used video snapshot (which take a frame) and I saw that the frame that firefox saved to my drive is pixel-y and less smooth and not like the video it shows to me.

I even checked with screenshot (which take picture of screen and not a direct video frame extract) and I can see that it is smoothed.

what is happening?

could it be AMD ? could it be my desktop KDE doing something?

it is a bit hard to show it but I can clearly see that the video frame I extract is less smooth that the video shown.

Ubuntu 25.10's transition to using Rust Coreutils in place of GNU Coreutils has uncovered a few performance issues so far with the Rust version being slower than the C-based GNU Coreutils. Fortunately there still are a few weeks to go until Ubuntu 25.10 releases as stable and upstream developers are working to address these performance gaps.
