How do I Disable Video Autoplay in Seamonkey?

I already have Shockwave Flash set to ask to activate.

Thanks.

media.autoplay.enabled
media.block-play-until-visible

I checked my Seamonkey, and about:config
has both of those booleans available for edit.

That doesn't mean they work - it just means they're settings
available to play with.

You might check to see if Seamonkey has the equivalent of:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/click-to-play-per-element/

but there are no guarantees on that.

I think that should be media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground.
media.block-play-until-visible does not exist in my SM v2.49.3.

This works.

media.autoplay.enabled;false

To play the video, you just click on the "rotating arrow."
