Re: Tab Audio Indicators
Well, currently it's not quite reliable and misses many media elements, not to mention Flash. It's nothing compared with Firefox's solution. At least I tried.
But, I do have a question for PM's team. Is there any particular reason why media.useAudioChannelService is not included in preferences by default? Does it come with some stability issues? I've found there is a media-playback message which could be used in an observer to capture any source of sound coming from a DOM document. But it works only if the preference mentioned before is set to true. Here is even a test for this.

It's a hidden pref in v27. I don't think we have the audio channel service platform code in our current release versions, I'd have to check.wost_ wrote:Is there any particular reason why media.useAudioChannelService is not included in preferences by default?
EDIT: no, it's there in v26 also.
As for stability issues; I wouldn't think so -- it's something that's been enabled on mobile for a long time.

Re: Tab Audio Indicators
Apparently this preference causes pausing media playback for all tabs in a window except for selected tab (Bugzilla).
So, it's not a viable solution without applying patches to make this usable on desktop. Sorry for bothering.

Youtube works on html5 because I have not installed flash player at all.

Re: Tab Audio Indicators
Dunno the technical reasons, but this setting does not disable all autoplay.LimboSlam wrote:this is already accessible in about:config, and it's called media.autoplay.enabled. No need for extra functionality when media.autoplay.enabled (toggle to false to take effect) hits two birds with one stone, right.

Hi i'm new to the forums but not entirely new to the browser. I would also like this feature added . I used opera for years and was overjoyed when it arrived.

See here: https://addons.palemoon.org/extensions/ ... oisy-tabs/. Just note, it doesn't work with some complete themes, which you can find them here: https://addons.palemoon.org/themes/.

Re: Tab Audio Indicators
thanks I knew about this extension , I do wish it was just a built in feature perhaps some day and what an awesome security essentials icon you have picked for your forum profile!LimboSlam wrote:Argonianaccount wrote:Hi i'm new to the forums but not entirely new to the browser.

Re: Tab Audio Indicators
If there's any specific theme at issue here, do let me know and I can take a look. I can't fix bugs if they're not reported, after all.LimboSlam wrote:Argonianaccount wrote:Hi i'm new to the forums but not entirely new to the browser. I would also like this feature added .

Yes, there is. I haven't been able to contact you or wost_ because I've been quite busy myself. So when I do have the time, I'll contact you in the appropriate thread.

Re: Tab Audio Indicators
I have noticed Firefox 51.0.1 does have Tab Audio Indicators and I would also like to see this feature in Pale Moon. I often haven 40 or more tabs open and its very difficult to figure out which tab audio comes from after a restart.
Re: Tab Audio Indicators
This is implemented as an add-on for the default theme of Pale Moon. Now, unless you're using specific theme and are having problems, then you should report it.
