- Rated 4 out of 5by Ashby, 7 years agoSeems to work for me...it does break some websites--but so does the built-in FIrefox preference in about:config. This at least lets you whitelist sites that break...
Really this addon shouldn't be necessary--Mozilla should add click-to-play html5 video built-in, like they have for Flash... - Rated 1 out of 5by owintwist, 7 years agoFait bugger beaucoup de choses, à commencer par les vidéos elles-même et rends les userScripts (via GreaseMonkey) totalement inutilisables.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13454361, 7 years agoDoesn't seem to prevent autoplay at most sites. Not even at big sites like Youtube - you'd think that it would be the first place to test an add-on like this, but oh well.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13421951, 7 years agoCan't play videos at all with the add-on enabled now.

- Rated 2 out of 5by trashcanbin10, 7 years agoTwitch being the worst affected. Video doesn't load at all when it's not whitelisted.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13370016, 7 years agoDo the job on some website (not all), but breaks some others too, and sometime adblocks.

- Rated 5 out of 5by A.Sawicki, 7 years agoAs of a week ago (8th September) it doesn't seem to work with YouTube videos any more. It is a real shame as I've found the add-on to be very useful, and I hope this issue can be fixed quickly. Come on, dev, we know you can do this! ;·)

No, seriously, they try to load and play their videos in at least a half dozen ways .... - Rated 3 out of 5by Proc, 7 years agoDisable preloading doesn't work.
Non autostart works well on youtube, I like the option to enable/disable it at any point without having to go the plugins page - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12762356, 7 years agoIt simply doesn't work with the BBC News site. I've removing this pile of junk!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Aemony, 7 years agoUse the built-in feature in Firefox instead:
1. Type about:config in the address bar and hit Enter.
2. Accept the warning to continue.
3. Search for media.autoplay.enabled and change the value to false by double-clicking on the row.
Enjoy your much better solution all through a built-in feature! - Rated 1 out of 5by Tina C., 7 years agoInstalled it, tried to test at this link:

And guess what? The adds autoplayed, the video autoplayed. The add-on simply doesn't work. - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13092968, 7 years ago
