by Alexandra, 2 years agoOverall the extension is really great, however it would be great if there were the ability to disable it for specific websites or for the extension to actually do nothing at +0 dB,
I am saying this, because currently there seems to be a bug with this extension that if you have it, and it has the permission "Access your data for all websites", videos in the online discord app do not make any sound.
I did check and without the extension or the permission that issue does not occur, however if i don't give the permission the teal dot of the extension requesting it is really annoying, so i think for now i will either remove it or simply disable it until and unless the issue gets resolved
(EDIT)
More specifically, video files in discord(at least ones with the .mov extension) don't make any sound, however everything else on discord still makes the sound with the extension active

posted 2 years agoThat's why such things are optional...
I have tried on discord, without issue, both with the extension enabled w/ optional permissions and without.
Alternatively to setting in the optional permissions, I think you can toggle it on a per site basis, by right clicking the extension and clicking "always on on *.com"
Sadly there's no method to quickly toggle the permissions on FF, I tried looking into setting a hotkey to enable/disable the extension but it wasn't working...
The default behavior is to only operate on click (when you click the extension, otherwise it shouldn't be running)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Ajinkya, 2 days agoworks. best feature it remembers last settings for audio boost per website.
- Rated 5 out of 5by burak, 5 days agoThanks to its ability to have both mono/stereo control and volume boost, my two plug-in needs were reduced to one. Also it works perfect.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19939033, 7 days agoTwitch audio breaks while the extension is active. Also doesn't work on most websites.
- Rated 5 out of 5by EvillNooB, 7 days agoworks on websites where the videos can change (like course lessons on udemy, where you stay on the same page, but the next video loads in)
another plugin worked only on the first video, but this one keeps working 👍👍 - Rated 5 out of 5by TheDangerousDucky, 7 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Nikitamce, a month agoI learned about this extension from an Asmongold video—he uses it to adjust the volume of online videos and enable mono audio output. That's why I recommend giving this extension

posted 15 days agoThe mute should be fixed its a CSP issue; [x blocked the script and so when it tried to access it audio breaks, but thats why there's a blacklist.] - Rated 2 out of 5by spschol, a month agoOn sites where it works the extension is very helpful. However there are several sites where I have had to disable this extension to play video at all, including Hulu and Peacock.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19820541, 2 months agoMutes audio on some sites I wanted to use it on. Works perfectly on sites where I don't need it. Great.

Maybe caused by some lack of DRM code.

- Rated 2 out of 5by SamsonIzBored07, 2 months agoGood, but it's just a compressor... I need something that boosts the volume with any compression being applied.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17590626, 2 months agoIn some websites I don't have any audio - where I used to - until I disable this extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by fcff, 2 months agoHorrible. Half the sites I go to brick the player until I turn off the volume booster. So dumb
