Please DON’T set up videos to play automatically on LDV.
I always block such things – usually annoying adverts. I don’t want to block LDV!
Hear hear! Very very annoying!
I’m already sick and tired of having to turn this damned thing off.
Very counter productive to try and force this sort of advertising on people.
TURNAUTOPLAY OFF
I cant turn the bloody thing off! please make it go away
Not only does it come on every time I click anything on LDV but the volume is ear-splitting.
Why is nobody from LDV reading this thread? – TURN THE DAMNED AUTOPLAY OFF
Turn autoplay off! Some of us read this while listening to music…
I agree, that was annoying. Hopefully autoplay now switched off.
(Btw, best way to alert the team to a problem is an email to [email protected] – most posts are scheduled in advance as we all have jobs or other commitments, so we can’t guarantee we’ll pick up comments during the day.)
If you use Firefox as your Internet Browser, videos do not play automatically by default anyway.
Dave – I do but it did!
