@PETES this solution worked for me, now it works fine in firefox. However, it stopped working in other browsers. Did the same happen to you?

Have same issue in Firefox.
Fix that worked for me in firefox webgl build was to re encode the videos to webM format VP8.
I used a "Free WebM Encoder" to convert the mp4 files.
I renamed the webM extension back to mp4 and uploaded the files does not stutter anymore.
