Webex Player Addons

Enhancer for Webex

Optimize Webex recordings with playback speed controls, audio amplification up to 200%, zoom with pan minimap, silence skipping, and downloads. ────── ### Detailed Description Webex Player Addons is a browser extension designed to enhance the playback experience of Webex recording files. It introduces advanced playback tools, customizable controls, and interface improvements to optimize efficiency and accessibility. #### Playback Controls • Playback Speed Adjustment: Replaces the native speed selector with a vertical slider allowing fine- tuning from 0.5× to 3× in increments of 0.25×. • Audio Amplification (up to 200%): Integrates a volume slider that supports audio boosting up to 200% using the Web Audio API, allowing users to amplify quiet recordings beyond standard browser limits. • Video Zoom and Pan: Includes a zoom slider (1× to 2× in steps of 0.1×) paired with a 16:9 minimap. Users can drag the visible area boundary on the minimap to pan around the zoomed video. • Silence Skipping: Features an automated silence skip toggle. When silence is detected, the extension increases the playback speed (configurable from 2× to 16×) and automatically restores standard speed when speech resumes. Volume threshold and reaction delay can be customized. • Keyboard Shortcuts: Adds keyboard shortcuts for player control: the Spacebar toggles play/pause, and the Up/Down arrow keys increase or decrease playback speed by 0.25×. #### Interface and UX Enhancements • UI Decluttering: Automatically hides the sidebar and the "follow speaker" button on startup to maximize the video viewing area. • Settings Persistence: Automatically remembers and restores the last used playback speed, volume, and zoom settings for subsequent recordings. • Estimated Remaining Time: Displays a real-world countdown next to the player's time display, showing the remaining time calculated at the current playback speed. • Recording Download: Integrates a download option directly into the Webex player page to save recording files locally. #### Settings Panel The configuration menu is accessible via the gear icon in the Webex player toolbar, allowing users to toggle the UI cleanup, settings persistence, and estimated end time features.
