You get no placeholder. And it plays, right? Because it's what it should
do by default in a fresh Tor Browser 8.5.4 installation.

Not so strange: you could be using a Tor Browser alpha and/or have
installed a different NoScript version (not the one shipping with the
browser). But you're standard, it seems.

My answer is irrelevant, because even if I develop NoScript, I do not ship
in the Tor Browser neither decide its configuration presets. On the other
hand, you actually answering my question would have been helpful, as the
security level determines what you can expect to be the "normal" behavior.
However I've just tried to reproduce any anomaly on a fresh Tor Browser
8.5.4 installation w/ default NoScript 11.0.2, both on Linux (Ubuntu
18.0.4.3 LTS), macOS Mojave **and Windows 10**. I obtained the following
expected behaviors for each of the three security levels, upon opening
https://www.sample-
videos.com/video123/mp4/720/big_buck_bunny_720p_10mb.mp4:
1. STANDARD: the video plays as soon as the page loads
2. SAFER: I get a window-sized placeholder, which if clicked opens a
prompt to let me decide whether letting the video play. If I authorize it,
the video plays as expected
3. SAFEST: like #2 SAFER
I cannot test on other platforms, but a Windows 7-specific bug of this
kind would be extremely weird.
Can you actually observe anything different?
If you can, what is that?
Thank you again.
