See a video, play it. Check the comments, it plays again. Back out of the comments and it keeps playing. It's the same for looped or YouTube videos. I don't understand why anyone would want this? I watched it once, why is it playing again?

Anyway to stop videos looping and stop anything from auto playing at any point?
