    I just tried nightly too and I’m not getting that, what file is it trying to download?

    I do have a second video ad halfway down the screen that autoplays against my permissions. Installing ublock origin fixes that problem. Are you running ublock? Which video was auto playing for you? Ads really wont care what your settings are, but that’s why we block them entirely.

      Nightly tries to download a file named master.m3u8 which is a Playlist for the actual video that plays.
      (I’m talking about the embedded video right here in this page, not when following the link.)

      And yes uBlock Origin everywhere all the time, otherwise browsing is simply a pain.

      Weirdly, Firefox doesn’t autoplay if I reload the page, but if I follow a link here (like from the replies page) it does.
