Safari won't run any flash animation until you actually have the tab active and is pretty reliable. I'll be happy if they do that.

- sigkill 14y agoI've never run Safari and I find this interesting. So if the tab is say, torn apart and put on a second monitor (which is visible), but you're working on another tab, does it literally pause the animation halfway?
- Tyr42 14y agoI'm pretty sure it's just starting the animation.
- andyhmltn 14y agoCan confirm this. It was a good feature when using youtube. I usually search for something then shift+click about 4-5 links and watch them one by one. In chrome you have to go into each on of those tabs and pause the video to avoid a clusterf*ck of different sounds. With safari it seems to do it automatically.
- ne0phyte 14y agoWhy shift+click? Don't you like tabs (ctrl+click)?
- sovok 14y agoThe "Stop Autoplay for Youtube" Extension helps with that: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stop-autoplay-for-youtube/lgdfnbpkmkkdhgidgcpdkgpdlfjcgnnh?hl=en-GB https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stop-autoplay-for-...
- Funnnny 14y agoisn't that flash plugin features ? It's a big problem with flash game on Kongregate for a long time now.
- hnriot 14y agoI'd not want this for audio, what about pandora in a tab, I don't want it active to listen to the music.
- scott_s 14y agoIt won't start the animation until you view the tab, but it will continue to play it when you move away.
