1526945 - Sync Block websites from automatically playing sound option

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Sync, enhancement)

Description

[Artem Polivanchuk]

The option "Block websites from automatically playing sound" should be synchronized using Firefox Account.
Currently, it doesn't sync when changed.

String id: permissions-block-autoplay-media2

I couldn't find the preference id for this option in privacy.xul

For more exotic prefs like that, you can usually search for the checkbox ID (in this case, autoplayMediaCheckbox). One of the results is https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/5e3bffe964110b8d1885b4236b8abd5c94d8f609/browser/components/preferences/in-content/privacy.js#356-357, and toggleAutoplayMedia has the pref we're looking for: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/5e3bffe964110b8d1885b4236b8abd5c94d8f609/browser/components/preferences/in-content/privacy.js#1113

Want to submit a patch? :-)

So here I have to add the following string under the // Preferences to be synced by default in firefox.js

pref("services.sync.prefs.sync.media.autoplay.default", true);
