Thomas Lange bf470704a5 Add option to control preloading of video data 
Fix #4110 by adding an option to control the preloading of video data on
page load. If disabled ("false"), the browser will not preload any video
data until the user explicitly hits the "Play" button.

If enabled ("true"), the default behavior will be used, which means the
browser decides how much of the video will be preloaded.
