Pause Resume Audio Fade

Softly fade audio on pause, resume, and seek in browser video players.

A Chrome extension that briefly fades audio when you pause, resume, or seek in the browser. Pausing a video can cut the sound off abruptly, and resuming can feel like the volume jumps back suddenly. Pause Resume Audio Fade smooths these sudden volume changes with short fades for a gentler listening experience. [What's new] Support for more browser-based video players. Reload the tab you are watching after updating. [Features] - Fade out on pause Gradually lowers the volume right after you pause, then stops. - Fade in on resume Brings the volume back from near-silence to its previous level when you resume. - Fade in on seek When you jump to another position on the timeline during playback, the audio ramps up from the new position. - Per-feature on/off Toggle fade-out, resume fade-in, and seek fade-in independently. - Master on/off Disable or enable every feature with a single switch. - Adjustable fade duration Set the fade-out and fade-in durations anywhere from 100 to 3,000 milliseconds. [Defaults] - Fade out: 350 ms - Fade in: 300 ms - Fade in on seek: On The defaults are short enough to stay responsive while still softening abrupt volume changes. [How it works] The extension runs on browser-based video players. It does not run on non-video pages such as shopping flows. After installing or updating, reload the tab you are watching. On some DRM-protected streams, the fade may not apply if the site ignores JavaScript volume changes.

[Permissions] - storage Used to save your feature toggles and fade durations locally on your device. - Access to supported streaming sites Required to apply the audio fade to each site's main player.
