- 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 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.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14001973, 7 years agoVery nice addon, seems to block most things although some fly under the radar. I would like to be able to add a wildcard. On bandcamp.com, each band has their own subdomain, so you have to add band1.bandcamp.com, band2.bandcamp.com, etc. It would be nice to be able to manually add *.bandcamp.com
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13998670, 7 years agoDownloaded twice but cannot find it among my Add-ons.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13979712, 7 years agoIt works on script clicking pause button. Very often it goes into loop and uses 100% CPU.
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13404500, 7 years agoThe pre-loading option so needs to go bye-bye.
6/8/18 EDIT: Eh, forget what I said. The add-on just needs to be updated. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13466198, 7 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13888099, 7 years agoSimply doesn't work. Installed it and went to some sites I knew did autoplay video to test and they continued to do so, even after restarting Firefox.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 6140639, 7 years agoper-URL config is wonderful (e.g.: disable-autoplay-everywhere-except-youtube)
EDIT: it stopped working completely for some reason - Rated 5 out of 5by Beverly Howard, 7 years agoGreat... only issue is that when active, it then takes two or three clicks to _start_ videos, but it's well worth that cost.
- Rated 5 out of 5by smishe, 7 years agoGenerally works perfect , but youtube comments don't appear with it ,please fix it , thank you!
- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12531918, 7 years agoA bit annoying that it has to reload YouTube page to prevent autoplay. It also doesn't let to continue playing from the stop when I switch to YouTube from embedded video on other site. Would be nice to implement it or I will be grateful for an extention which has this functionality.
