Latest Version of Opera.

Hello.

'Clearly,' I am missing a detail because I am unable to find 'Autoplay' (in order to turn off Video and Audio) under 'Site Setting.'

Where was it moved to?

@sporty78 Opera One or Opera GX?

Opera doesn't have such setting, it follows Chromium autoplay policy.

My question has not been answered:

'How Do I disable Video and Audio Using Opera' 'or' do Video and Audio play by default?

@sporty78 Like I said, there isn't a setting for it.

You.can try using an extension to stop autoplay.

To be clear, without an 'add-on extension,' Opera enables Video and Audio Autoplay by default and, consequently, both have to be stopped manually on every website?

@sporty78 Yep, like in other browsers.

I am not sure what you are talking about.

FF has an 'Autoplay' Setting option that permits a user to 'Block Audio And Audio,' which works beautifully.

Unfortunately, O does not have an 'equivalent' setting, which is what I was asking about.

@sporty78 FF is the exception, other browsers also don't have such setting, specially the ones based on Chromium.

To be clear then, when using O to access websites with Video and Audio, unless a 3rd party extension is 'added,' V and A will play automatically?

@sporty78 Audio can be disabled in settings (search for sound).
