Why doesn't Firefox stops videos in a background tab from loading anymore until i click on the given tab?
I watch a lot of youtube videos and i open a lot of them in a short time. Not so long ago Firefox implemented this feature where when i opened a video in a new tab the video wouldn't start until i clicked on the new tab. The site would still load and all but the video would only start if i clicked on the tab. ("Load on tab select"-addon is not for me ) If i open a video in my current tab i want it to start right away just like normal. ("media.autoplay.enabled" option is not for me) Now (Jan. 2017) this wonderful function Firefox had is gone. What happened? I'm pretty sure i changed no settings. How get this function back?

I'm not sure yet, but i think i got the solution.
set
"media.block-autoplay-until-in-foreground"
to "true" in the about:config options
That was very good work. Well done. Please flag your last post as Solved Problem so others will know.

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.
You must remove the older programs. Then get the current full installer.
Flash: Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac
Then reinstall the latest version.
Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).
Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.
