After a bit of messing around with why blocking auto play of videos is not working, i managed to find a work around and stop videos from auto playing.
Only by disabling my extensions, ublock origin and no script, i could get brave to work as intended and it would stop auto play of videos.
1.Disable my extensions
2.Open youtube, select a video,
This even works when i have someone’s channel open and i open one of their videos in a new tab,.
With extensions enabled, If i go to a user’s channel ,then open one of their videos in a new tab , it would always ignore the auto block and play the video, but once again, disabling my extensions fixes the problem.???
I just tried with disabling ublock origin, and only having no script enabled and everything works. As soon as i enable ublock it breaks auto play again???
I have youtube.com and googlevideo,com set to temporary trusted in no script.
