I find HTML5 auto loading both invasive, and a potential security
threat. For example, if I land on this page with flash turned off:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SSUwSZYkQQ&feature=related
[A 70th Birthday Tribute To Muhammad Ali]
HTML5 auto starts and begins downloading the video automatically. If I
let it continue, the player then caches the download and begins playing
the video.
I realize that I can turn on controls and pause/start the video. I know
that I can right click on an html5 video and click 'Stop download' I
also know that I can turn off JavaScript completely to kill HTML5, but
that of course kills all javascript.
Basically I would like a button (like the flash/kill flash button on
Prefbar) to enable me to turn off HTML5 *completely*, and to turn it
back on should I care to. about:config only has the following html5 entries:
html5.flushtimer.initialdelay
html5.flushtimer.subsequentdelay
html5.offmainthread
and none of them turn HTML5 off.
So, I rephrase: anyone know how to turn *off* HTML5 completely, without
disabling javascript completely?
I don't know how to turn it off completely, but changing
media.autoplay.enabled to false will keep them (and flash) from
autostarting.
