- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14191595, 6 years agoBlocks videos successfully, but exceptions list does not work. HTML standards bodies need to come up with a real option for disabling autoplay instead of these half-baked, buggy solutions.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14160321, 6 years agoWorks with YouTube perfectly as well as any other site using HTML5.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14088171, 6 years agoIt works great! Finally I have a way to prevent youtube videos from automatically playing. A bunch of addons that specifically say that they'll stop youtube from autoplaying don't work at all. Thank you so much for this addon.
Edit: Idk why a bunch of other comments are so negative when all the other addons I've tried are the "piece of garbage" addons. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13704799, 6 years agoIt doesn't work. Tried it on skysports.com & youtube.com and this extension didn't make any difference.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Norm, 6 years agoPiece of garbage. Cannot enter exception sites like Hulu or HBO where I want AutoPlay On.
No response from the developer to my e-mail please for help.
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS TERRIBLE ADD ON - Rated 4 out of 5by ronso0, 6 years agoWorks great!
Feature for deserving 5 stars: allow to edit/add whitelist items.
As of v2017-12-20 it has to be enabled for every bandcamp.com subdomain (anydj.bandcamp.com)
Could you please implement a fix for that? - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13903753, 6 years agoUsed to be good, but now breaks vimeo (even when disabled) and causes high cpu load. Not recommended.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14096124, 7 years agoVielen Dank für das Addon. Genau was ich gesucht habe. Autoplay wird überall blockiert und auf Seiten wo ich es doch haben will (Yotube) kann ich es gezielt einschalten. Keine Probleme :)

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13682911, 7 years agoWorks more often than not, but has misses. I think maybe it generally fails when the video is in an iframe. Looks like embedded YouTube videos always play automatically. Used to work against the very annoying BBC video preview but seems not to work anymore.
- Rated 5 out of 5by pm, 7 years agoWorks nicely. Blocks annoying videos from playing automatically when a page loads. If you want to see an example of an annoying video, check out Texas A&M's homepage: Without the extension (or with it disabled), you have to tolerate a full-screen background video of people walking through campus and a large flag, flowers, foliage and other stuff blowing in the breeze for what seems like an eternity. With the extension enabled, the first image is stopped in its tracks and the extension allows you to get down to the business of finding your way around the site. This extension allows the user to decide when to play a video, rather than leaving it to the whims of a website developer.

- Rated 5 out of 5by James Deibele, 7 years agoLove that it stops auto-play on sites that I've never visited before. Was very easy to allow Youtube to automatically play while everything else doesn't.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Radek, 7 years agoCan cause high 100% processor (cpu) usage, browser freeze, overheating, memory (ram) leaks on random pages.
Completely blocks video on vimeo.com
Developer does not respond to emails. - Rated 2 out of 5by reza, 7 years agorecently vimeo videos don't play with this addon enabled, even with selecting not to disable auto-play and preloading
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14048396, 7 years agoThe first one I've tried that actually works!! Well since the old flash days that is. It actually blocks HTML5 video, transforming my browsing experience. Thank you so much.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14027866, 7 years agoSuper w 100% polecam w końcu mogę ustawić przeglądarkę tak jak Ja sobie życzę, np blokowanie autoplay na onecie, a na youtube startuje. Nie ma też żadnych problemów z pracą działa tak jak powinno !!!!
- Rated 5 out of 5by CHN, 7 years agoThis solved the problem pronto! And with no apparent "side-effects" on my system or on the websites.
