When selecting Block Audio and Video option, I click settings and set to Block Audio and Video for Default for All Websites. It does not effect the browser from blocking.

How do I make it really work? I try to add websites but unable to do that, there are 2 websites listed as allow, I try to block them, have tried to delete them but when I save setting, they seem to return and allow.

So effectively it is not functioning. Is this just a fake setting?
