Hi there!

Using version 0.6.2 over my latest Opera web-browser for Windows. As one signs-out of the AOL mail a/c. the embedded videos are playing automatically indeed !

Pl check out the impaired functionality against the following reference :-

https://www.aol.com/article/news/2018/07/23/stormy-daniels-lawyers-say-she-is-headed-for-divorce/23488057/

default mode = disable autoplay

Inputs will be sincerely appreciated.

Thanks.

@saurabhdua82 dude why are you requesting support on abandoned software?

Eloston commented 6 years ago

@cowbert Now I'm curious: why would you ask on some software that's been dead/broken for a while?

I wouldn't get your hopes up for a revival. If I am to attempt this problem again, I will probably do it at the browser level. Extensions are far too limiting, and newer features like Shadow DOM would make this practically impossible.
