Disable Video Autoplay

[DrClairvoyant]

Hi there! I just found out that after I click a video in an RSS feed, any time I open a feed with an embedded video, the video will just play automatically. I didn't find any options that disable autoplay. I also tried restarting the software, but that doesn't work either. Any way to make sure that videos will not play automatically if I click on a feed?

I second this request. I subscribe to Dpreview via https://www.dpreview.com:443/feeds/news.xml and they started (I think recently) to have embedded videos that both autoplay and drop to a corner when you scroll down.

So it might be more than just autoplaying embedded videos; is it that active content (i.e. javascript) gets executed? I would never ever want that. An option or maybe two to disable autoplay and all active content would be perfect.
