Is there some "Toggle" in SM that I can click off
where a video only runs if I allow it ?

media.autoplay.enabled = false


I have tested this option .. the side effect is that:

When on certain sites I try to start a video > Impossible - the 
video would not start until I put:

media-autoplay.enable = true.

Stopping FoxNews Videos ?

2019-01-23 Thread DoctorBill 

I go to FoxNews and if I click on a story,
the video automatically starts playing.
This essentially slows my system down to a crawl.

Is there some "Toggle" in SM that I can click off
where a video only runs if I allow it ?

Re: Crashes

2019-01-23 Thread David H. Durgee 
Have not seen any further crashes and unclear what action on my part
relates to the crashes, so unlikely to be recreated.

I take an old school approach to keeping down the crap:

Seems to cut down the advertising noise quite well.

 Just had my second crash with 2.49.5 here:

 http://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/bp-2ec4f1b0-e335-4e9c-9227-1527d0190120


 Once again this is nothing like the previous crashes.  Once again I
 have
 no idea what caused it or how to avoid it in the future.

 On a related topic, is the "Restart Seamonkey" button supposed to work
 on linux x64?  It doesn't work here, I have to start Seamonkey fresh
 after every crash.
