Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

AudioPick allows to pick a preferred audio output device that is used when a chrome tab is playing HTML5 audio or video over HTTPS.

The extension finds HTML5 audio and video elements within the document tree and manipulates the "sinkId"` in order to switch to the preferred audio output device. Since version 0.3.8 it also finds Audio, Video and AudioContext objects that have not been inserted into the document tree, e. g. Spotify and SoundCloud should now work with the extension, too.

Since it's now possible to store/remember a preferred audio output device per domain, the extension's option panel and hence the option to set a global preferred device (for the browser) has been removed.

Note that the "Media Capture and Streams API" requires media (microphone) permissions to be granted to every site with audio sinks that need to be manipulated, which - as a result - allows those sites to access your microphone. Hence AudioPick only acquires permission when the user actually picks a non-default device for a site and restores permissions when the user reverts back to using the default. Since version 0.3.10 a "smartMicAccess" mode can be activated in the UI which further reduces the number of microphone permissions granted by the extension.

Awesome idea, but doesn't seem to work. When I try to select a different audio device for the tab I'm viewing, nothing happens. It just stays on the default device. EDIT: Nevermind, just had to refresh the YouTube page. Works great now.

Really useful especially if you have multiple audio devices but unfortunately its pointless if it keeps changing the default output every now and then. I don't know if i'm doing something wrong but it keeps forgetting the default device and puts it in something random. Can you help me out here? Also it works only for HTML video and audio tags so for example Spotifys Webapplication does not work with this Plugin. Youtube/Twitch and other usual streaming services work just fine

Well, i searched for it, found it, installed it, works perfect. SomeHotkeys or Custom Menu Icons would be 10/5 stars. Like if u could create an extra Button in the MenuBar for a specific device to switch to switch just one click.

Chrome update has broken this extension and no longer changes the audio output when you pick your new output. I've tried reinstalling the extension and reinstalling chrome.
