It’s a wav file in Jellyfin. I have made sure the file in question has not been corrupted. I’ve also confirmed it’s not a Jellyfin issue as I’ve tested and confirmed that it works in chromium. Every other wav file (or otherwise) works perfectly fine. If it matters, I am using the Arkenfox user.js

As someone else said, it’s a bit hard to diagnose without the original file, or at the very least hearing what the distortion sounds like. Chrome does appear to support more wav formats than Firefox according to the listed support on their respective sites. Firefox supports 8 and 16 bit PCM wav files, and chrome supports 32 bit wav as well.
Jellyfin may also be doing conversion of the wav file since streaming wav can use a lot of bandwidth, there’s a chance it’s converting to a different format for chrome than it does for Firefox.
sorry, I downloaded the original file from here: https://soundcloud.com/dankmus/c-o-m-i-n-g-u-p-m-i-l-h-o-u-s-e/s-8xNXA
I did share link to a video on imgur that shows the difference between the warped audio and the original audio.
As for conversion, Jellyfin converts every lossless audio file to 320kbps AAC if I’m not mistaken.
Regardless, thanks for the informative reply. I’ll just listen to it offline for now
The comment ‘It’s a wav file in Jellyfin’ makes little sense.
There must exist a file, which is not contained by Jellyfin but instead exists in the filesystem. Is this the same file downloaded from the Youtube you mention?
Why not share the actual file, or actual youtube link?
