Youtube Audio Redirection Firefox

Youtube Audio Redirection

Redirects audio from YouTube to a user-selectable audio device. Intended for use on YouTube Music, but should work on YouTube proper.

Features & Capabilities

This extension allows you to redirect the audio from YouTube videos to a specific audio device on your computer. It creates a GUI (Graphical User Interface) that allows you to select an audio device and start or stop audio redirection. The extension also blocks requests to YouTube when audio redirection is active and allows navigation to YouTube when audio redirection is inactive.
