I just made the switch from the Muon Version and after making sure the settings are as I like them I noticed that YouTube Videos are still playing automatically (even though I have disabled Autoplay on all websites).
I am using Brave Beta Version 0.56.5 from the Brave repository on Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon (64 bit).
@jotoho, thanks for reporting. Can confirm that Youtube is bypassing autoplay block, as well as others as well. Looking into this!
@jotoho You can disable autoplay using the following steps
Block (default) to Block
Follow the first method from here Autoplay not blocked on some sites regardless of settings configuration · Issue #1761 · brave/brave-browser · GitHub
The directions you gave here don’t work. Here’s the version I’m using.
Version 0.65.121 Chromium: 75.0.3770.100 (Official Build) (64-bit)
I go to autoplay like you said. The options I have are Ask (default_, Allow and Block. Allow is selected. I choose block and it stays on allow. I can click on Ask(default) and it changes to Allow(default). I can’t change it from Allow.
Hi @azspamhater
Sorry for the delayed response. Ok I see the problem. There is already an issue logged for this but had different scenario. I’ve added a +1 for this on the issue
