Noscript and html5 video player
Posted: Sat Dec 12, 2015 11:36 pm
Hi
Recently I've noticed more and more sites now start streaming video as soon as the page loads. As an example, go to the steam store and select any game/product.
If the product page has a video and autoplay video is enabled on the page (not noscript) options, the video will start playing automatically.
Previously, I would get presented with the placeholder, allowing me to select whether or not I wished to see the video or not.
It looks like the problem is the html5 player.
Is there any way of getting this player treated in the same way as the older style player got handled?
Cheers...
