Have you tried using the specific volume command for Youtube itself?
Perhaps somehow, your Firefox is set to cause Youtube to play at a lower
volume.

Start a video playing.
From the top of the page, type b until you get into player commands.
Then, depending on the browser you are using, turn the Virtual Cursor off or

browse mode off.
Tab and shift tab to be sure you are in the player commands. I believe
volume up is up arrow. Press it a lot of times or try ;pressing and holding

it to see if the volume goes up. Others may definitely know the command.

Subject: Re: [nvda] Discrepancy Between NVDA and Youtube sounds

The reason why I had a problem with volume on Youtube was because I
was using Firefox. I switched to Crome and I have no problem. I looked
up volume booster for Crome, but I was told the information I get on
websites might change with the use of it. So I decided not to get
it.

Hi every one,
There is a discrepancy between the volume of sound I get from NVDA and
Youtube.
For instance, when I listen to a Youtube video I need to turn the
volume all the way up to hear some sound, but then the volume from
NVDA is at 100%.
Is there a way to equalize the sound volumes of both NVDA and Youtube
so that I won't have to turn up the volume all the way up to listen to
a Youtube video?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Just joined the group, so  excuse me if this question has been asked
before.

The question is: why does NVDA default to no Braille whenever I start
my computer? I have a Freedom Scientific PM 20 Braille display connected
to my pc via USB. What can I do to have NVDA start with Braille?

Also, if I run Narrator with Braille on, then close Narrator to run
NVDA, NVDA also then starts up with no Braille. How can I get NVDA to
start with Braille without having to go into the Braille setting to
change it to my choice of Braille display?

Thank you,
Nightowl.

Hi all,
To settle the matter for my add-ons and to answer possible questions:
* Can I run current add-ons on older NVDA releases: technically, yes;
practically speaking, no. This is more so if you are using an older NVDA
release that doesn't include a feature that is desperately needed by
current
add-ons (Python syntax differences and libraries, for example). In case of
any add-ons I'm maintaining, unless otherwise noted, there is a limit as to
how old an NVDA release you can use with add-ons. For all practical
purposes, my add-ons require NVDA 2019.3 or later for proper functionality.
* Does NVDA 2017.3 run on Windows 10: yes and no. The first version to
support Windows 10 properly was 2015.3 (I championed for it then). Does
this
mean 2017.3 works on modern Windows 10? Yes to some degree. What about
versions such as May 2019 Update? No because certain features, namely
proper
support for modern input features, came with later NVDA releases. How about
Chromium Edge? NVDA 2017.3 does not properly support it - the only Edge it
is familiar with is the one that is, for all practical purposes, end of
life.
* As a follow-up, will you (Joseph) make add-ons so NVDA 2017.3 users can
use more modern Windows 10 features: a year ago I would have thought about
it. Today, despite calls for this, my answer is no. We have gotten to a
point where we cannot cross the "ocean" to return to the old world,
particularly more so since NVDA 2019.3.
Cheers,
Joseph

Arlene, Zahra is correct. I keep a copy of 2017.3 around for add-on
testing,
and its basic functions work quite well under Windows 10 up to, at least,
Win 10 version 1909.

However, essential items like the Add-on Updater, and Windows 10 App
Essentials, do not work with it, unless you dig up some very old versions.

Basically it is highly inadvisable to use such an old version of NVDA on
Windows 10, and there are rarely any good reasons to do so, unless you need
to use it to find bugs for add-ons and things like that.

I would certainly never use it as my daily screen reader.

Luke, Arlene here. I had both versions of NVDA 17.2 all the way to 19
something. But when my windows 7 died I lost all versions. The one I did
get back was NVDA 19 something. I didn’t think it would work for windows
ten not unless like you said if you were testing addons. It would probably
work. I would have given it to Zarah but I lost it when my 7 lost audio and
died. I did have it on a thumb drive but when I loaned the drive to my room
mate while she was helping her mom they deleted it thinking it would not
work for win ten. They installed the 19 version on her mom’s ten box just
as they did mine. Oh well. That’s how it goes.

You may, although since I don't regularly use that old version for other
than
testing purposes, I don't know how much help I will be. But you're welcome
to
try.

I will also note, that Espeak has definite issues under Windows 10 and
2017.3.
The longer the text you read, the more harsh and distorted Espeak becomes,
until
it reaches some threshold and resets.

Espeak is definitely not pleasant in that use case. Some people might say it

never is, but for someone like me who uses and prefers it, under 2017.3 it
is
difficult to listen to after a short time.

But you're welcome to ask your questions.

If you press NVDA+4, or toggle "Speak command keys" in NVDA's keyboard settings, it will speak keys such as ENTER or CONTROL+S.

NVDA doesn't automatically know that CONTROL+S is save, so it generally won't automatically announce that, however if the keystroke brings up something like a save dialog, then that would be announced (for instance the first time you press control+s in a new document in Word).

Not directly related to control+s, but there is a "clipspeak" add-on which will report the functions of some keys such as control+c (Copy) and control+v (paste) where they perform those functions: https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/clipspeak.en.html

Kind regards

Quentin.

you can use 'nvda extention global add-on'.  it has wonderful features

including speaking of commands. it is a private add-on though.
