Can you try "svn co
https://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/freebsd-gecko/trunk/www/firefox/"
and build firefox from that directory and try again please. You could
also try firefox-nightly
(https://trillian.chruetertee.ch/svn/freebsd-gecko/trunk/www/firefox-nightly)

If you want to quickly try nightly you can use this package
http://buildbot.rhaalovely.net/builds/firefox-24.0a1.en-US.freebsd10.0-x86_64.tar.bz2,
just untar it and run ./firefox/firefox, the package will have no sound
though.

I'm on 10-CURRENT and I can watch hours of HTML5 videos on Youtube
without problems.

Florian
