How do I prevent videos/animations within webpages from automatically playing? I cannot seem to find a checkbox for this under "Options." Only a checkbox to prevent automatic loading of "images."

I ask this question because when I visit certain web pages (e.g. the gossip page of sfgate.com), there are multiple videos on the page, which will automatically start playing at once. I know on Internet Explorer, there are two checkboxes under Settings, one to prevent images and another to prevent animations from automatically loading. I was hoping there is a similar option for Firefox.
