Something similar came up previously in the forums. Try the workaround posted there: > [@Option controlling autoplay of audio dropped into card editing window](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/option-controlling-autoplay-of-audio-dropped-into-card-editing-window/3863/6): > > Using this is a bit complicated since you have to build dependencies and run from source. I think this can be done with an add-on. I’ll do that and return to you later. Update: Copy the code below to a file named \_\_init\_\_.py and put it in a folder called something like editor\_no\_autoplay, then copy that folder to your addons21 folder found in [Anki’s data folder](https://docs.ankiweb.net/#/files?id=file-locations). import html import urllib.parse from aqt.editor import Editor, pics def myFnameToLink(self, fname: str) -\> str: ext = fname.s… Note that this will also disable autoplay when adding or dragging and dropping media files in the editor. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/annoying-autoplay-right-after-recording-a-voice-for-a-card/8414)._
