disable auto play video in Viewer mode?

Post by bucky »

I see that there's an option (Option > Browser > Preview > Auto play for Video/Audio) to disable auto play video in the Browser mode preview window.

Is there a way to do the same thing in Viewer mode? I use page up/page down to scroll through images and videos in a folder. But I do not want the videos to automatically start playing.

That seemed to remove the movies altogether from browsing (using page up/down). What I was looking for was a way to be able to browse through movies and photos, but not automatically play the movies until I click the Play button.

Pierre has named the right option, the problem is that the above option does not work properly:
Rather than stopping videos from automatically playing it doesn't show them at all when navigating over the file list in view mode. That's a bug. :bug:
