Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.62.165 Chromium: 121.0.6167.184 (Official Build) (64-bit)
brave://settings/content/autoplay
or (detailed path)
Settings | Privacy and security | Site and Shield settings | Additional permissions | Autoplay
Allow sites to autoplay videos [toggle switch to grey]
or
Block sites from autoplaying videos [toggle switch to red]
