There is one recent bug tho. I don't know if it is Firefox, the
pipewire/whatever thingy or the website causing it. On some
video
websites, if the sound is to loud and I turn it down for Firefox
as a
example, after a fairly short amount of time, 20 seconds to
sometimes
as
long as a minute, it switches back to my normal setting, usually
louder. I already have a decent volume level for the master and
such
that I rarely need to adjust. However, some videos are just
uploaded
to
be loud. It's hard to turn those down and it stay down for
certain
sites.
I'm not sure if it may even be the website that does this. Some
sites
it stays where I put it, some sites it resets after a short
period of
time. It makes me think it might be some websites or just the
way
Firefox works with those sites.
i wonder if this might be an instance of this long-standing FF
bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1422637
The discussion mentions that YouTube in particular does volume
normalisation, and that:
[t]he extension enhanced-h264ify
(https://github.com/alextrv/enhanced-h264ify) has an option to
disable
the YouTube html5 loudness normalization.
i'd be interested to know whether anything in that discussion
helps fix your issue!
