UI element broken after YT's UI update in desktop.

works well

Button is mis-aligned with the new UI

it work great

Excellent one-click solution integrated right into the video player. The compressor settings are great here, definitely more aggressive than YouTube's own Stable Volume feature, and they even out the levels nicely. On the one hand, I might be tempted to request some settings for those who know their way around a compressor, or possibly multiple presets, but on the other hand, there's a beauty in the simplicity.

Great extension but causes frame drops on youtube videos (very minor though like 4-5 frames on a 10 minute video) other than that it fixed a lot of problems for me. Pretty much essential for me to use now and would be 5/5 if the frame drop problem wasn't there.

Better than Youtube's own Stable Volume option. They should pay this dev + royalties and use this as their standard audio processing FOR ALL PLAYERS.

Thank you for this! Easy to use. Would be great to be able adjust any video/audio from any website in chrome.

I wanted to give it 3 stars, because it is not really a compressor. But I gave it a 4th star because the problem might be outside the devs control. It boosts low audio which is like 5% of youtube. What I really wanted was to truly compress to bring all volume to the same level or darn close. But if I have a video at full volume, doing an A/B test I can barely hear a difference. But if I put the slider down low it can make an inaudible video louder. So, for this to "compress" I have to turn on the compressor and turn the volume down further than usual to end up with a tolerable volume. It's not compressing well though if it works with the volume instead of scaling with it.

This is now essential to my YouTube viewing experience now! It's especially useful on streams where there's unbalanced Discord audio. It brings everyone up to a more equal volume helping me understand what they're saying. Thanks so much for this!

Doesn't do anything. Maybe that's why it also doesn't need any settings.

Works exactly like the compressor I was using on twitch. I use an audio interface which isn't compatible with windows' device properties volume limiter so this is so helpful ^^

It doesn't work at all. I installed this to prevent loud dialogues and musical inserts in talk shows where levels are unbalanced. It did not work. I doubt it's a compressor. Could be a pseudo app to collect data because it doesn't have a compressor GUI. You need knobs and sliders to adjust thresholds and ratios. It's like a car without a steering wheel.

Works okay. Would be nice to have some options for the extension like being able to disable the 'V' hotkey.

It was good for a while, but started making videos pause after they start and not be able to un-pause.

don't expect this to magically fix all of your audio woes on YouTube, but it definitely helps smooth out audio levels a little and noticably boosts quiet videos. plus it's a very small and light extension that requires no setup whatsoever (for better or worse), it's a one-click thing that tucks itself into the video player's control bar. no reason not to give it a try and hear for yourself

working great. but please add a hotkey for quick turning on/off. (like "V" or something) not every video need to be compressed. it's just a little bit bothersome when you watch different videos at once.

Works great so far! I've been annoyed by videos with extremely low sound volume.
