[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1586384, member: 71075"] You'd have to find something that looks for <video> tags and replaces them with something else. The tricky part here is that developers determine whether or not the video plays. The [URL="http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_video_autoplay.asp"]autoplay attribute[/URL] here is what's causing your issue. Chrome has an autoplay blocker ([URL="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stop-html5-video-autoplay/ajkibmginjljbmmpgnipfbcbmkcodaap?hl=en"]here[/URL]) as does Firefox ([URL="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stop-tube/"]here[/URL]) if you use one of those as well.
