Browser extension: Louder

I publish another little browser utility: Louder. It is useful in cases when volume level of video is very low. Instead of maxing up global system volume to hear anything clicking on Louder icon pumps it up.

Louder implements gain and a little bit of compression of dynamics (loudness) to reduce distortion. It works with Youtube and some of other websites.

 

It is available as:

This is very tiny Chrome/Opera extension I’ve made for myself. Its kind of night mode extension which purpose is to make webpage area more accessible in dark environment e.g. at night by turning bright backgrounds down.

There are couple of customization options but not too many to preserve simplicity (this may change in the future, who knows…). The goal is to make it work with any website not just a couple of predefined ones. Having said that I’m aware of the fact that it doesn’t work perfectly with every single existing website but for those I usually visit – works quite well :).

If you like to check it you can get it from the Chrome Webstore or Opera add-ons websites.
