The Firefox auto play disable feature is really great. It stops YouTube from automatically playing videos. But it wont stop buffering the video. I'm really careful on my bandwidth. So, is there anyway to disable that auto buffering?

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
