I have both of those enabled and do not see any videos play
automatically.

Another data point:

I disabled all other extensions (including AdBlock, Blur, LastPass, and
UserCSS), restarted my browser with only ClickToFlash enabled, and
loaded the page, and even with both ClickToFlash Autoplay settings
mentioned above enabled, the videos did *not* play automatically, but
instead displayed the "HTML5" overlay.

This is with ClickToFlash version 3.0 installed.
