When I visit this site:

https://openai.com/gpt-5/

a video starts playing, and the process 'RDD Process' appears in 'top'
(linux command line) and the usage goes up from 90% to over 100%. Also,
when I click the try gpt-5, it does not launch gpt-5, but instead stays
on 4. I don't see these problems with Brave.

According to Chat-gpt this process is a sandbox video playing
process. But when I pause the video it still uses over 100% cpu.

I set media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2 but the video still plays
without asking.

The only way I know to check which version of chat-gpt is in use is to
ask it. Version 5 confirms itself.

Debian GNU/Linux 12
Debian 6.1.140-1 (2025-05-22) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Mozilla Firefox 128.13.0esr
