persistent-video-volume's Issues

disable sound

Hi, for all the websites I visit or hear sound for first time the sound is disable until I choose enable the volume from the addon menu (and then yes keep as intented) and then can only change (using the control from menu addon works in pause and playing) the volume using the audio/video control volume if the content is playing if not is reset to the previous state.

[Suggestion] Per Site Config

Being disabled by default, and if enabled for a particular site, keep the volume level only for that site. Ex: 100% always(disabled), Facebook 75%, Youtube 80%, Tumblr 50%. etc. without having to change it everytime. That would be very nice, especially for site where audio playback have no volume control, like Tumblr and gaming webpage where you can only turn it on/off.

Does not work

It totally does not work on Ubuntu 18.04 and newest FF. Volume settings in extension are completely ignored

Very low volume, possible bug on Firefox 66.0b3, Windows 10

Hello, on Windows 10 and Firefox 66.0b3 64bit (beta) i have 0.9.1 version of the plugin and i see youtube videos play with almost no sound volume, when i move the volume slider it raise volume, but only for a second or so, then again nearly mute the volume.

When i disable this plugin/extension, this issue no longer exist.

Ability to disable auto volume adjust.

I'm sorry where in the description did it tell that the add-on will fiddle with per-site volume however it wants? Right now if I 100% Youtube video the site volume is just 55%. Same with a bunch of other sites, not to mention volume blasts that happen if you adjust volume in a separate tab of same website.

Just an option to disable it would be enough.

Can't adjust volume

I'm using this on Dailymotion and it appears to work but the problem is when it's enabled the volume on the site can't be adjusted.
I have to disable it to be able to adjust the volume with the Dailymotion slider control.

Voting

To further improve the user's experience there is a decision to make.
I'm not sure if a global audio volume (as it is right now) or a per website based volume should be implemeted.

Please vote using +1 in the comments below or suggest any other idea.

Thanks

Video speed controls don't work when the addon is active

Windows 10, Firefox 76.0.1 64 bit

Website Volume Randomly Changing

I have the volume for YouTube set to 1% but this will change to 21% at random, shattering my ears and crushing my dreams of being an astronaut. Hopefully this can be fixed soon ^^

Dailymotion

Unfortunately Dailymotion doesn't save the volume level after a browser restart. It defaults back to full level. I've been caught out several times with it blasting at full volume.

I like the usefulness of this extension but unfortunately disabling the native volume control makes it a bit awkward.

Does not work on Rumble

Does not work on Rumble at all.

music.youtube.com

Frequenty bug: every few minutes
Bug:enabled website to any x %, for example 50%, then after about a few minutes it resets to 100%.

Repeatable: yes, very, very consistent

Link website where bug happens: music.youtube.com
Also:

Cross reference with other websites: i notice a sudden increase in volume then going back to pre-set volume, this happens with some other websites that are not music.youtube.com.
The difference with music.youtube.com is, that those other websites go back to the pre-set volume % again, but with music.youtube.com it will not go back, it will just jump to 100%

Seems there are 2 bugs here....

Handle websites audio changes

plugin no influence at all at: www1.cbn.com/radio/superbook

Above website's music volume is not influenced by your plugin at all Both master volume and website specific setting don't work.

Feature request: whitelist of websites

Is it possible to make a whitelist of websites, meaning that the addon will work only for the websites in that list? I use an addon for YouTube and PVV creates a conflict with it, which is why I'd like to be able to disable PVV for YT. The easiest way for that is to have a whitelist.

Enable on temporal audio instances

Some websites don't create media(video/audio) elements on their HTML tree. They create temporal audio elements on click events.

Does this code help?
(It works on both sites above)

Audio.prototype.originalPlay = Audio.prototype.play;
Audio.prototype.play = function(){
  this.volume = 0.1;
  this.originalPlay.apply(this, arguments);
}

But I couldn't figure out how to change the volume on this site:

Works on most sites except Pr0nhub ;)

The firefox version doesn't work (remember its settings) for PH on latest firefox (111.01) or earlier builds but the version for chrome works fine. Is there a fix? Tried un-installing/re-installing multiple times. Sometimes I'm browsing late at night on PH then suddenly I'm blasted by a wall of sound letting the neighbors know what I'm doing lol

Firefox freezing

The latest version 0.8.1 is still causing Firefox to freeze and then throw up various script not responding messages.

At the moment I'm having to use the videovolume extension instead of this extension.

Cannot track new windows.

I open a new window and it cannot interact with any website in that window. It is only able to interact with the first window. It opens and only recognizes my current selected tab on the first window.

Volume resets

I've noticed this issue since yesterday so it's probably been introduced with release 0.7.1 (on Firefox x64 61.0.2): after some time the volume resets to an earlier configuration (ex: originally set at 8%, manually changed to 30% then x minutes after it's back to 8%).
