[feat+] Add custom audio settings for a specific tab (or tabs) #758

Open Neilblaze opened 2 years ago

Issue ❓

Currently, with reference to Google Chrome's latest build [Version 96.0.4664.110], we do have the option to mute tab(s) by right-clicking on the tab and selecting the "mute" option. It can be noticed that if the mute is done for a specific tab, for example,

https://meet.google.com/abc-efg-xyz, and with that let's say we have similar endpoints i.e. https://meet.google.com/<insert-address-here> with different addresses opened in either and or different tab(s) & window(s), it also mutes the same i.e. all of them!

💡 This is also valid for Incognito too!

This causes a lot of mess when several similar endpoints are active (independent of tabs & window count) and more importantly, currently Chrome doesn't have any sort of option to customize audio decibels for individual or multiple tabs.

Solution ✔️

Currently, to tackle such a problem, I found this Chrome Extension, which does allow tackling the second issue, but still, I believe, the first one is equally important! Hence, I request to add this setting in Chrome for better accessibility :)
