Firefox Extension: Stop Autoplay

• Guide Download

Guide

Stop Autoplay is an extension for Mozilla Firefox. It can help you to block the autoplay of the embedded music and movie in a webpage, and then play it as you wish.

• To block the autoplay of the embedded media, you have two modes to choose:
  1. Disable only the autoplay of the embedded media. In this cas, the media file will still be loaded and embedded when page is loading. Press the Play button of the controller when you want.
  2. Block the media when loading a page. It will be replaced by a red frame with a play button in the center. Click in the red frame to load and then play it.

  

• For the movie/music within Flash, Stop Autoplay can:
  1. Allow all Flash media.
  2. Block all Flash media (and replace it by a blue frame).
  3. Or Block Flash accroding to the blacklist, which is customized. (default setting)

  Don't use this feature with Flashblock extension.

• Stop Autoplay can also convert the IE-only HTML tag <bgsound> to the Gecko friendly <embed>.
• Sometimes, the background music has no control panel and you have no way to play or stop it. If you like, Stop Autoplay will show a controller, size customized, in the right top corner of the page.
• Stop Autoplay provides also a whitelist. You can input the keywords of the sites which you allow the autoplay.

Attention!

Due to Bug 236839, you have to enable JavaScript to make Stop Autoplay to work.
