How do I stop video and/or audio from playing automatically?

Fire fox is automatically playing videos/sound or both if I click on a tab that has that or also in facebook, etc. How do I stop this? I want to be able to click play when I want to hear/see something.

I just went to the link and followed the instructions. It is working for me when I click a tab that I have a youtube video on! It doesn't stop the sound or video for a story when I click on it in fb, but I can just mute my speaker if I need to do that. I couldn't find a reel to scroll past. lol Thanks!
