AutoPlayStopper not working on certain webpages?
-
I'm having an issue with the popular extension "AutoPlayStopper" on certain webpages. For example, while it works as expected at the main site espn.com (no autoplay within that main webpage), when I go to a page within (example- https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/33168812/san-francisco-49ers-trent-williams-ankle-questionable-nfc-title-game-adamant-play), I find the video starts on its own.
I've tested using Chrome and this extension works as designed/expected throughout.
I've erased cookies from within that site, closed/reopened the tab, etc.
Are others finding this conflict within Vivaldi as well?
Thanks.

Hi there
This is from an earlier post I made ...
Although the Autoplay Stopper extension I mentioned in an earlier post is good, I found that even it struggled when it came to Youtube.
Since then I've come across one that performs even better.
It's called TurnOffTheLights and it can dim the screen around the video you're playing to make for better viewing.
However it also contains a video Auto Stop feature which works extremely well. So well in fact that I've switched to it.
You're getting two features for the price of one !!
Go here to get it ...[https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/turn-off-the-lights/bfbmjmiodbnnpllbbbfblcplfjjepjdn]
The video Auto Stop feature is not switched on by default so once installed you have to right click on the extension icon, choose Options and then under Basics scroll down and tick Auto Stop.
You won't have any more problems if you use this one.

I use Disable HTML5 Autoplay (Reloaded)
0.9.2. Seems to work fine.
