Open ve6rah opened 8 years ago

ve6rah commented 8 years ago

When I went to the Calgary Herald site today and opened an article containing and HTML5 video, the video still played despite this extension. Address: http://www.calgaryherald.com/business/alberta+reveals+more+details+carbon+levy+rebates/11866119/story.html

Element from the web page: <video id="ooPlayer0container_Player_html5_api" data-account="4077388043001" data-player="4a521d08-c17d-425f-ba6e-dddedfd26d9a" data-embed="default" data-setup="{&quot;techOrder&quot;: [&quot;html5&quot;, &quot;hls&quot;, &quot;flash&quot;]}" class="vjs-tech" preload="none" style="display: block;" src="http://cdnbakmi.kaltura.com/p/1698541/sp/169854100/playManifest/entryId/0_6gmjjsc8/flavorParamId/487051/format/url/protocol/http/a.mp4"></video>

Browser: Chrome Version 50.0.2661.75 beta (64-bit) Extension: Disable HTML5 Autoplay Version 0.6.1

Thanks for reporting. It doesn't autoplay as long as there are no input events while the video loads.

If an input event is not over the video itself it shouldn't affect the desire to stop the video from playing.

Actually, any key presses, mouse clicks, or touch events anywhere in the page during video loading will trigger autoplaying.

I'm rewriting the algorithms in 0.7, so this will no longer apply.

Thanks, that would definitely help this bug
