About this extension

Pauses all HTML 5 videos/audio with just a single click on the toolbar icon or by pressing F4.

This is useful when working in an office environment where you may be frequently interrupted while listening to music on Youtube or other video/music streaming sites, and it is not always convenient to be riffing through your open tabs closing the sound-making tab in front of co-workers, bosses, clients, etc.

Currently supported sites:
* Most that use HTML5 video/audio elements - e.g. Youtube, Vimeo, Twitter, RNZ, Stuff . co . nz

Unsuported sites (to be fixed in upcoming releases):
* Soundcloud

Other sites:
* Give it a try! Submit an Issue/Pull Request if it doesn't work on any particular sites.

Permissions Usage:
* Tabs - To go over all open tabs, hunting for applicable media players to pause
* All Sites Access - So it can affect media on any site identified as making noise
