ruma TigerNightmare, 2 år sidanWhen it works, it works well, it's simple and effective. However, it completely breaks audio on a lot of sites such as IMDB, where there is no sound, or Prime Video, which shows an error message if you try to watch anything. The only way around it is a four step process where I have to right click the icon, click 'Manage Extension', click the toggle to disable, then click back to the tab I was in. And then when I finish watching whatever video, I have to click back to the extension management tab and re-enable it.
It would be nice if there was an easy way to disable the extension in 1-2 clicks, or right click it and blacklist the entire site in the current tab so that it automatically disables itself, it would be much less of a hassle. Ideally, it would just work on all sites, but I'd settle for workarounds.
EDIT: Found another problem where it really breaks Bing functionality. I can't access the menu, video result previews don't play, and only the first 8 thumbnails load in, while everything else is a black rectangle. Image searches show a similar problem where no thumbnails below the top results load in. If I make my window larger, more results show, but as soon as I page down, broken.

This behavior works better on MS:Edge.
Prime video is also working fine for me. https://i.ibb.co/sjMP70Y/image.png
I'm not experiencing any issues with bing.com, the videos seem to be mostly youtube videos and they load as normal. Do you have other extensions installed? Also because MS love proprietary nonsense. I recommend using User Agent Switcher to make all MS junk to use Edge's UA.
Further changes to allow per URL stuff, and caching sites requires more permissions. This was originally meant to be low permission, and the smallest footprint volume control plugin.
Please contact me in the Github repository via the issues tab.

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 5ruma arboch, ein månad sidanThanks for the spectacular extension and link to source code; it is highly appreciated since most other "volume control" extensions on Firefox are sketchy or outdated. Works very well.

- Rated 1 out of 5ruma Sev, 2 månader sidanNo longer works on Meta-owned sites, which are the entire reason I installed it (given Facebook videos have no volume sliders). Trying to use it on Facebook or Instagram since the latest update now causes a "This site is in the exclusions list" despite having not changed any settings on my end. I'm sure this is due to a change with Meta, but it defeats the purpose of this extension for me.

xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanUnless it's in the exclusion list, it shouldn't display this message. Please paste your log in the github issues..... you can also temporarily downgrade to an older edition from the github releases page or the versions page on mozilla https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/volume-control-boost-volume/versions/
Hope I can help you resolve your problem and you can revise your review to 5 stars. I jut do this as a hobby. - Rated 1 out of 5ruma kibababa, 2 månader sidanWorks good but on some web sites breaks audio completely (e.g. Steam) and it's not possible to know that audio is broken unless you know it should be playing on the website. Too much hustle...
Tzolin rutzij b'anonel
xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanIts because steam blocks it in their CSP, sadly lots of CDNs do.
I could individually add each one to the FQDNS list, but like you said that's a lot of hassle and it has to be reaproved by mozzila everytime etc.
The way audio source is pulled is on page load. If it's doing it too late lots of sites won't interact with the plugin. Where as its an issue on sites with strict CSP as then it just blocks audio.
So sadly there's nothing I can do about it, without further reducing compatible sites.
Could maybe make a whitelist mode instead of a blacklist mode in the future.
I hope you revise your review as it "works good" - Rated 5 out of 5ruma 0WfCh, 2 månader sidan

- Rated 5 out of 5ruma Rocky, 2 månader sidanPleasantly surprised after last experience with volume booster. This application rocks!
- Rated 4 out of 5ruma Subvert, 3 månader sidanWouldve been a 5 star cause it does do the increase volume thing well, but for some reason it causes multiple elements on the website d2l (which i use for my college courses) to break. No clue why or how it does this, but because of this I'm forced to uninstall the extention

xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanIt's most likely because it interacts on page load and your site has a strict CSP. If you add it to the FQDNS list the page may then work. - Rated 3 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 18768669, 4 månader sidanworks just fine on for me relevant websites
BUT
blocks amazon prime and disney plus videoplayer. so in order to stream any movie on these sites i have to deactivate the extension. - Rated 5 out of 5ruma Roundup, 4 månader sidanFar better than other sound addons. Does the job, doesn't broke the pages and no ads/clickbait.
- Rated 3 out of 5ruma mb9023, 4 månader sidanWorks sometimes but often I load up a page and the video has no sound at all, especially on twitter, until I disable and re-enable the extension. Would be nice if it remembered settings too.

- Rated 2 out of 5ruma Peter, 6 månader sidanThe only one volume extension that actually could make the sound overly loud for good. But for some reason it just doesn't remember the volume setting.
Do make setting per page basis for this extension.Tzolin rutzij b'anonel
xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanSadly, I was having a lot of issues implementing the ability to save the volume per page, and most videos on a page are diferent volume anyways so this is not a planned feature. - Rated 1 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 15478281, 6 månader sidanTERRIBLE! MAKES EVERYTHING ELSE SUPER LOUD!! I LOWERED ONE TAB AND IT MAKES EVERYTHING ELSE LOUDER. MY EARS ARE BLEEDING

xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanThat shouldn't be possible its initialized per tab. - Rated 5 out of 5ruma Eryo, 6 månader sidanSimple et efficace. Garde en mémoire le réglage effectuer pour les shorts suivant contrairement a d'autre extension qui reset le volume après un Skip. Je préfère.

xtalüx rutzijol 2 månader sidanIt works but some sites have CSP rules that block it from initializing/breaks audio. Add those sites to the blocklist in the settings.- Rated 1 out of 5ruma Firefox okisanel 18640104, 7 månader sidan
- Rated 1 out of 5ruma dehskins, 7 månader sidanNope. You don't want to use this app. Worked once and then muted all my tabs. Delete!
