- Rated 1 out of 5by pineybreeze, 6 years agoThis plugin not only didn't work for me, it interfered with the functioning of my password manager (LastPass) so that I wasn't able to log into it, or to access remembered passwords for sites where the password screen was separate from the user ID screen. I am on Windows 7, and I am running a lot of other FireFox extensions.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14435160, 6 years agoGreat addon. Works perfect on Win 10, FF 64. Download dot com has a auto play video on every software page and this plug-in stops them all.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14436305, 6 years agoWORKS FINE in Firefox on my Win10 computer and in Firefox Beta on my LG Android phone. I don't know why people give it such a bad rating.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14423036, 6 years agoas of 11/12/18 the addon does not work. If your on the latest version of FF, best option is to go to about:config, at the top search for autop, find media.autoplay.default, and change from 0 to 1 by right clicking the entry, and choose modify.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14151745, 6 years agoFINALLY this worked. The prior attempts to disable website audio autoplay via about:config settings only worked on my devices, but not my desktop. This plugin did the trick and eliminating a regular source of irritation. Thanks, Afnan!

in about:config you can set media.autoplay.default to 1 in order to block automatic playback on all pages or set it to 2 to decide on a per domain basis. - Rated 1 out of 5by Stefaan, 6 years agoWorked for a few days, now doesn't do anything anymore. Became useless.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5862475, 6 years agoWorks perfectly, what are these people talking about?
I see people saying they miss the FlashStopper ext, this is a perfect replacement, Thank you! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14393835, 6 years agoThis appears to work exactly as advertised. FF v. 63.0, macOS 14.0 ("Mojave")
- Rated 3 out of 5by TheBlackMonk, 6 years agoThanks to the dev for his work on this project, hopefully an update is coming. As this work is uncompensated we can't ask for much. As many have stated the add-on is no longer working.
In about:config under media*autoplay I was able to get autplay disabled. Had to create the boolean media*autoplay*disabled and fooled around with a few other strings. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14283168, 6 years agoVersion 2018.10.3 No longer works at all. Per-domain preferences always remains empty. No longer stops Youtube videos from playing.
Rolled back to Version 2017.12.20 which does work correctly. Remember to turn off Add-on auto update for this extension. - Rated 2 out of 5by Seraphael, 6 years agoUsed to work fairly well. Now not at all as far as I can tell. Not even YouTube where the videos keeps on rolling.
