Boost What the Normal Boost Can't Reach

The normal boost can now reach audio it used to miss. On a site whose sound it can't touch directly, whether that's a file the page loads from outside itself or a player embedded in it, the popup tells you and offers Capture Mode on the spot instead of the slider moving while nothing changes. A new optional Smart Mute setting, "Mute only when new audio starts," mutes nothing when you switch tabs and lets the tab where you last pressed play keep the sound. Both ship off.

• When a boost can't reach a site's audio, the popup now says so and offers capture on the spot, instead of the slider moving while nothing changes
• The offer no longer calls a plain audio file "encrypted"; it names the actual reason the boost can't reach it
• Pages that play their sound inside an embedded player are now detected, so you get the capture offer too
• New optional Smart Mute setting, "Mute only when new audio starts." With it on, switching tabs mutes nothing and the tab where you last pressed play keeps the sound
• It ships off by default, and Smart Mute itself still ships off
