Auto Play.

The amount of videos being posted with auto play is pissing me off. One thread had 10 of them and it made my computer force quit my browser. I'm proposing that any post with an auto-play video just gets deleted. Its so annoying.

So yah, who agrees with me?

k mods can you delete his. I search barred but nothing came up. Also you might want to actually do what you said. Theres still tons of autoplay embeds.

Not the same thing, He's talking about the accidental auto-play vimeo videos.

I have to agree with Zack here it's a big piss off. It's not really peoples fault though the old embedded code on vimeo has autoplay=true on it, seems like they just added it in the past week or two.

Can mods not go in and actually edit the html codes of the post to remove the auto play?

Well I agree It pisses me off when I open a thread and some random edit starts playing. Isn't there an option to turn off the autoplay when you embed though?

unrelated, but i think that you have to use the new embed code now. i successfully embedded one with it after the old embed code wouldn't work.

i think at this point the best solution is to get information out on how to turn off autoplay, like was said before, most seem to be accidents.

Yes there is! You just need to change the embed code before you copy+paste.
