How do I either stop videos from autoplaying or auto repeating? Either one would be a blessing but I've searched and cannot find an effective way to do it. Blocking in Firefox is not effective. Mostly it seems in facebook, but I believe it repeats all the time on all sites.

Tim, I managed to block video Autoplay by doing the following.

  • go to the Tools menu (alt+T) and select settings.
  • in the settings page, search for "Autoplay".
  • find the Autoplay section in the results and press its settings button.
  • in the dialogue box that opens, choose "Block Audio and Video" as Default for all web sites.
  • press the save button.

(you might need to restart Firefox to see the change)

After doing this, I need to manually start playing a video for it to play.

However, I personally do not know if it is possible to prevent all sites from video looping, via a Firefox setting.

That was my previous setting, but I'll try unsetting and resetting it again. Thanks

You can look at these prefs in about:config to see what settings work for you to block media auto-play.

  • media.autoplay.default = 5 [0:allow;1:blockAudible;5:blockAll]
  • media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2
  • media.autoplay.allow-extension-background-pages => false
  • media.autoplay.block-event.enabled => true
  • media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground

You can open about:config via the address/location bar. You can read the warning and click "Accept the Risk and Continue".
