About Volume Scroll

Let your mouse wheel be the volume knob. Volume Scroll lets you adjust playback volume instantly. No more reaching for tiny on-screen sliders. Just hover over the player and scroll. The goal is to work everywhere: YouTube, Twitch, Netflix, Spotify, YT Music, and any other site with a HTML5 video player. The extension comes preconfigured, but Volume Scroll is extensively customizable. Nearly any setting can be changed as you see fit. Core Features - Scroll to change volume on any video with just your mouse wheel. - Precise scroll automatically kicks in at lower volumes for finer control. - Invert scroll direction if scrolling down for louder feels more natural. - Round to the nearest increment for clean, predictable volume steps. - Modifier key: hold a key (e.g. Shift) to toggle volume scroll on or off. - Alternate step: hold a different key to switch between two volume increment sizes. - Audio boost: push volume up to 1000% with a custom boost color indicator. Visual Overlay Choose how you see your volume change, with multiple overlay styles: - Number: a clean numeric display. - Bar: a volume bar along any edge of the screen. - Circle: a radial indicator. - Retro: a classic volume meter look. - Custom: upload your own image frames that animate across volume steps. Every overlay is fully customizable: - Position: snap to a corner, place it anywhere with custom X/Y coordinates, or have it follow your mouse. - Adjust size, duration, color, background opacity, and even apply a dutch angle tilt. - Show or hide mute/unmute and play/pause icons on the overlay. Smart Behavior - Custom shortcuts: assign hotkeys or mouse buttons to toggle mute/unmute and play/pause. - Fullscreen-only mode: only activate when a video is fullscreen. - Playing-only mode: only activate when a video is actively playing. - Iframe support: works seamlessly inside embedded players. Per-Site Control - Enable or disable the extension on specific websites. - Set a default volume and optionally start videos muted per site. - Every setting can be overridden on a per-site basis. Scroll behavior, overlay style, boost amount, all of it. Custom Rules & Extensibility - Create custom handlers for sites that aren't supported out of the box, just provide a CSS selector for the video element. - Ignore specific elements on a site to prevent scroll hijacking in menus, chat panels, and other UI. Import & Export - Share your settings, or import presets from other users. Open Source: Contribute or report issues on GitHub: https://github.com/FredrikWilhelmsen/Volume-Scroll
