Have gone to Advanced Settings –>Site Settings  and set video autoplay to BLOCKED. However, this is useless. Videos still autoplay every time. How to fix before I abandon Chrome entirely?

You need to disable java feature in settings. Chrome forcing user playing videos in background for monetary reasons.

The Site Settings–>MEdia setting has disappeared entirely from both my desktop and mobile Chrome versions. WTF is going on here?

Same here. Trying to listen to music and read but a stupid video keeps
auto playing. Media options in settings has gone. Can’t be bothered
anymore. Uninstalled Chrome and now using Firefox which has a nice and
easy disable autoplay option.

Same here. MEDIA is not an option in my site settings. Neither is video or similarnoption. 

The autoplay does not start, but every time i scroll past a video, any music/podcast will be paused as long as the video is in the picture. Very disturbing.

Agree autoplay is NOT fixed.  MacBook Pro desktop chrome Version 80.0.3987.132 (Official Build) (64-bit) has no media or site setting options. Autoplay SO ANNOYING that I am ditching chrome and going back to Safari or may try Firefox.
