by Firefox user 16058521, 2 years agoDoesn't work anymore. Not sure why, not going to troubleshoot because an alternative is already working without issue, thanks for the last few years though!

posted 2 years agoStill working fine for me. It's nice to hear that this has been useful to someone else over the last few years though.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Catboy Bebop, 5 months agoOnly thing that could make this better is if it could mute/unmute sites based on if a certain audio device (such as headphones) are connected or not. Granted, I'm on Windows, so I don't know if that'd work on other OSes, but it'd be nice to have.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Arno, a year agoThank you so much - muting domains instead of tabs was the number one Chrome feature I missed. This extension does exactly what I wanted and improves my browsing experience a lot.
I just added this to userChrome.css to remove the ugly "MUTED" label by Firefox:
.tab-secondary-label[muted] {
display: none !important;
} - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13480280, a year agoWhen I press ctrl+m it mutes/unmutes multiple tabs from the same domain, even though they have different subfolder address. I expected only the current tab to be affected and keep every other tab muted. Would be nice to have different keybinds to whitelist domain and mute/unmute current tab.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Peter Kehl, 2 years agoThank you. Works well.
However, with most/all tabs muted, the "muted" icon next to each tab is taking space, it's visually noisy and it hides/replaces the site icon.
Remedy: Hide "muted" icon unless a tab is currently playing sound.
How? create "userChrome.css" file with the following content:
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
.tab-icon-overlay:not([soundplaying]) {
display: none;
}
.tab-icon-image:not([soundplaying]) {
opacity: 1 !important;
}
Save that file in chrome folder right under your Firefox profile folder. To locate that, open Firefox special URL about:support and see "Profile Directory".

- Rated 1 out of 5by Yoksven, 2 years agoCouldn't unmute all tabs when decided to remove the addon. Spending precious time unmuting by hand. Pretty pissed.
- Rated 1 out of 5by TTeddy, 2 years agowhy EXACTLY this exists ?!?
if it add all by itself the very one site I REALLY NEED TO MUTE to exceptions ?!??!?!?!?!? - Rated 5 out of 5by DawnDawn121988, 2 years agoThis is great for those annoying mini videos that play on sites that you visit to download a freeware program. They pop up telling you how to install the same kind of programs over and over again its annoying. So this really helps with those videos.

- Rated 5 out of 5by StillMissingOldFF, 4 years agoBeen using it for some months now and works as expected. 👍 Had to get used to it at first though, there were moments I thought YT has a new feature to mute embedded videos in other sites because I got no sound xD 🤦
