Pale Moon 31 suspends video if it's put to the background for a while to reduce resource usage. When switching back, it will have to "catch up" which would cause the dropped frames.
If that's undesirable, try setting media.suspend-bkgnd-video.enabled to false.

Re: PM 31.0.0 Windows video freezes
This is a good idea to turn on this feature. I tested it everything works well. The cpu loading becomes smaller.
