While browsing with Mozilla, I would prefer not to have videos play unless I start the video. This goes for commercials or any video. Is there a preference to set this? If not, can you make one that does that?

You can set plugins to "Ask to Activate" on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" page to make Firefox ask to confirm to allow the plugin.

By default plugins.click_to_play should be default set to true. However, please also contact Apple support to make sure that this is expected.

If there is not an option to override this, it is also possible to set the preference in about:plugins:
