I want YouTube to play video on tab focus

more options

I usually open YouTube videos in different tabs and wish for the video to start when I click on the tab. However, I have to manually start the video when I focus on the tab. I have tried enabling Autoplay in Firefox, but it plays the video and audio before I select the tab. I would like the video to play when I focus on the tab.

Hey! Sorry for the late response! Could you please send me a screenshot of your problem? I get what you mean by opening Youtube videos in different tabs and how you wish for the video to start when I click on the tab. But I would really like to see a screenshot.

Thank you! Please reply asap so I may solve this!

Kind regards,

Hey there!

I just experimented oon my computer an I have found out that the timing matters a lot. For me if I have youtube videos on multiple tabs (and I've never even touched them) it wouldn't play automatically. But sometimes it does! Even for me the video and audio play without me clicking.

I assume it is because of the recent update. I advice you to experiment on your computer when to click the tabs.

Hope I helped! Please reply asap so I may fix this for you!

Kind regards,

Bithiah

It looks like this when I open a YouTube videos. I want the video to play automatically not when I open the tab, but when I first click on the tab.

I don't think there is a built-in feature to autoplay-on-focus. Maybe there is an add-on for that? You could search on the add-ons site:
