Can't revert to older version, was better then.

Eigentlich eine schöne Idee und funktioniert oft gut - manche Seiten laden aber komplett gar nicht, wenn die Erweiterung aktiviert ist (bspw. plus.rtl.de), das macht sie nur sehr begrenzt einsetzbar.

this doesn't do anything. doesn't increase the volume. 5 second review. i will continue trying all the sound enhancement apps and giving them 1 star. so far, about half of them did work but increased the pitch of the video. the other half didn't do anything.
