These Chrome extensions elevate your video playing experience
There is nothing like unwinding after a long day at work by watching some videos on YouTube. These two Chrome extensions, which Google picked, aim to make video watching more controllable and comfortable than ever.Volume Masteris an extension that gives users more control over their volume. You can adjust how you want videos to sound quickly by boosting voices or bass. It also has a feature that manages which tabs are playing sounds so you can quickly jump to them to control them.
Turn Off the Lightsis another top pick by Google, and it does exactly what its name suggests. It takes a bright web page surrounding a video and fades it to be dark like you’re in a movie theater. This is great if you prefer browsing in light mode and want a quick way to dim it or if you use dark mode and still want your screen to go even darker.
