HTML5 videos autoplaying

Thought I'd stick this here too.

Embedded HTML5 videos are currently autoplaying, which is annoying. We're looking into it but for now you can stop them from auto playing on your end.

In Firefox open a new tab and navigate to "about:config", click the "I'll be careful" button if it shows up. Then type "media.autoplay.enabled" into the search bar and double click the only thing that shows up to set it to false.

In Chrome you need a plugin such as Disable HTML5 Autoplay.
