Volume Control [Boost volume] by Chaython

Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 18952227, a year agoThis is the best volume add on I've used, many of the others are offshoots of the most popular one, which barely changes the volume of tabs and is rather useless. One thing to note that if it is not working on certain websites ensure you go into your settings and allow it to run on websites with restrictions or it will seem as if a website is on the blacklist even if it is not.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Andre, 5 days agoSometimes it works independently from any volume on the website in question and sometimes it 'takes over' that website's volume tab if that makes sense.. Like if you already have another volume tab extension (like the one for bandcamp) it glitches...
Edit: I changed my rating to 5 stars bcs it's working great now!Developer response
posted 4 days agoYou can blacklist the site in settings / click the active button off and refresh the tab.
Of course, two extensions using the same API w/ permission to the same site/tab would fight one another. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 20007803, 7 days ago

posted 7 days agoI cant control site policy, If you see another one that works there lmk ill try to replicate their process.- Rated 5 out of 5by coffeejay123, 9 days agothe latest version 6.5 has a bug when you skip ahead in a video it will mute the audio. i've rolled back to version 6.1 for now but just letting you know...
- Rated 1 out of 5by val, 16 days agoit worked very well for the first few months, but recently the audio has began bugging.
im not sure how to explain it well, but it kind of sounds like those annoying "earrape" (for lack of a better word) audios people use to troll with. ill listen to a video from bed and the audio will be fine, it goes quiet for a moment and then starts blasting like that, and i have to get up to fix it.
it usually fixes if i just pause the video and unpause it, but its been getting worse where it happens a lot more often than usual, (sometimes every ~5 mins) doesnt stop after one pause, etc. and its gotten very annoying.
the extension is nearly perfect but this one thing just completely ruins it.Developer response
posted 7 days agoI added a ton of patches, 6.6 is still pending update approval from FireFox, but if you go to the support page you can sideload and test.
I never experienced the issue you mentioned yourself, but any possible flaws have been fixed in 6.6 - Rated 5 out of 5by Ajinkya, a month agoworks. best feature it remembers last settings for audio boost per website.
- Rated 5 out of 5by burak, a month 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, 2 months agoTwitch audio breaks while the extension is active. Also doesn't work on most websites.

posted 16 days agoThis is a limitation of the site, the script should no longer have audio blocking but it will only let you lower volume on sites with strict CSP. CSP blocks extensions from manipulating the site/audio. - Rated 5 out of 5by EvillNooB, 2 months 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, 2 months ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by mudkipkid1, 2 months agoThis addon still disables streaming sites like amazon prime and crunchyroll from playing videos. annoying...
Developer response
posted 16 days agoIt shouldnt after the last patch, and the solution was theres been a toggle to disable it on unsupported sites for over a year now. Here in Canada it does work on amazon prime for me. TBF FIrefox has fallen far behind and I use my extension on Edge. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 19911397, 2 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Nikitamce, 2 months 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
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16751724, 2 months agomakes videos on x mute. -dev fixed it. works great.

posted 2 months 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, 3 months 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, 3 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, 3 months agoGood, but it's just a compressor... I need something that boosts the volume with any compression being applied.
