RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1301099

People

(Reporter: reven4000, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:58.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/58.0
Build ID: 20180128191252

Steps to reproduce:

None.


Actual results:

There is no way to mute the entire browser.


Expected results:

Firefox should natively have a way to either mute the entire browser or mute all tabs at once. This toggle would ideally stick between sessions.

I don't think being able to mute the whole browser is the same as muting the whole browser by default.

Anyway…
* OS volume mixer (on Windows, once bug 1358372 is fixed).
* Add-ons like https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/mute-tab-webextension/
