Volume Controller

HTML5 video and audio volume controller
What is Volume Controller?
'Volume Controller' is a highly efficient Chrome extension designed to manage the volume of HTML5 audio and video across multiple tabs in your browser. It allows users to save their preferred audio settings and apply them universally. This feature is remarkably beneficial while browsing social media or streaming platforms that often blast high volumes, saving you from the instant scramble to adjust the volume. The extension even remembers your settings after cache clearance or a device reboot.

Extension summary

Most of the websites allows us to stream/play videos, but plays at high volume(100%) which is annoying and immediately the user starts searching for volume adjuster.

This extension helps you to get rid of those annoying high volumes and it works similar to your system-level volume manager, which manages for all chrome tabs you are working on.

Changelog:

v0.4 - Configure volume step size

v0.3 - Keyboard shortcuts to increase/decrease/mute volume (see settings page for instructions)

Features:

  • Play audio/video media with saved volume settings.

  • Remembers previously saved volume level (even after cache clear/reboot). This helps to avoid checking for volume level while opening the chrome app freshly.
