OMG... So many sources of Javascript bloatware.

I had to white-list a dozen domains. Sheesh.

If I load one of the video pages, I get a spinning
blue circle, and no video. Hitting "unpause" doesn't
start the video.

But moving the position cursor, and only then hitting
"unpause" plays the video.

I'm afraid my setup is too different from yours to be
of any relevance. So it's just a random data point.

Regards.

I have tried toggling the second setting both ways and it makes no

Could you provide an URL for testing purposes?

Regards.

Go to aol.com and select any news article.  For me the headline video 
plays automatically every time.
