Videos are now autoplaying

Post by goalie71 »

I have the browser set to *not* autoplay videos and it has always worked on this particular site until today. Now an ad followed by a news video always auto plays, no way to stop it.

Samsung Galaxy S5, not rooted, running Marshmallow.

Thanks

Seconded. This is the only site I've had a problem with, but it's consistent when a page has embedded video. Help would be most appreciated.

If by "the browser" you mean Adblock Browser for Android, this is where you need to go: forum/viewforum.php?f=24

The current forum is for the old Adblock Plus app, a local filtering proxy that never worked well even where it did work.
