- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 14163788, 19 days agoUnfortunately, this extension causes issues with OnlyOffice integration with NextCloud. I have no idea why but it causes a Permission denied to access property "dispatchEvent" on cross-origin object. I cannot edit any documents with this enabled.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Noneo Yerbizniz, 2 months agoNeeds option to prevent even loading the video without my okay (and the "okay" should be something difficult to accidentally trigger on the phone screen). Currently still allows sites to waste my data by pre-buffering a video I have no intention of watching.

- Rated 4 out of 5by icegoblin, a year agoWould be nice to have an editable white-list that allows regular expressions (or similar syntax). As an example, bandcamp has subdomains for each band and I'd like to disable it for the entire website, instead I have to disable autoplay for every new band I listen to.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14775162, 2 years agoBreaks CNN video playback. Built-in autoplay off feature is sufficient. Removed plugin.
- Rated 3 out of 5by hackerb9, 2 years agoThis extension is no longer needed. Firefox already includes a setting to block media autoplay. Go to settings and search for "autoplay". Click on "Autoplay → Settings...". I suggest changing the default for all websites to "Block audio and video".
Firefox also makes it super easy to add exceptions for certain sites. Just click on the Permissions icon to the left of the address bar and it'll give you a quick drop down menu to permanently allow auto playing both audio and video or only audio.
Of course, although it is no longer necessary, I thank the author who kept this extension updated all the way until 2018. You helped a lot of us out, - Rated 5 out of 5by Gridlocked, 2 years agoThis is a lifesaver. It blocks auto play on sites and that kills the drop down of vids on the same pages as you scroll. Also there are sites where auto play is preferred and this allows for exceptions.
