When using AirPlay on Facebook, when I scroll to a page where the poster has placed a video in the body of the post as opposed to a link, the Airplay automatically tries to play it and I get a "error loading content" message. How do I prevent that from occurring?

Hello

There is an option to turn off the Auto-play when using the Facebook app. To make those changes, navigate to your home screen and then go to Settings > Facebook > Settings and you should see an option Auto-play and set it to off. I have provided a screenshot to show where the settings section for Facebook in the Settings app. The screenshot is for an iPhone but will look very similar on your iPad.
