Adds support for native text-to-speech audio descriptions for videos.
The Chrome Web Store rounds user counts down to the leading digit, so the user line moves in steps. The ratings count is exact and is the better signal of real adoption.
About Audio Descriptions
This extension adds support for audio descriptions in videos that use the track element. A drop down menu field is appended after compatible videos for users to enable audio description tracks.
When a audio description track is enabled and a video is playing, when a cue is reached, the video is paused, the audio description text is read aloud via text-to-speech, then the video is played again.
There are settings in the extension's popup for adjusting the text-to-speech rate and pitch.
Many more features in the future.
