Where in the index file may I set firefox to autoplay? I found this code but dont know where to use it. You have to disable block auto-play and make sure media.autoplay.default = 0 Also make sure media.autoplay.allow-muted = true and media.autoplay.enabled.user-gestures-needed = false

You have to enter about:config in the address bar to see the advanced preferences. But your values are outdated. To disable autoplay, set the following:

  • media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 1
  • media.autoplay.default = 5

If '1' isn't working properly for that first pref then try media.autoplay.blocking_policy = 2.

The preference media.autoplay.default = 0 is correct if you want to allow autoplay. Enter about:config in the address bar. See the article previously linked.
