Freetube: Adjusting volume with scroll wheel is not working.

Created on 4 Oct 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: FreeTubeApp/FreeTube

Behavior of the program
When I hover over the volume and try to adjust it with the scroll wheel it just scrolls the page. I've read in a closed issue that this feature was supposed have been implemented.

Expected behavior
Hovering over the volume and using the scroll wheel should increase/decrease volume.

To Reproduce

  1. Open video
  2. Hover over volume bar
  3. Scroll up or down

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Manjaro
  • OS Version: 20.1.1 Mikah
  • FreeTube version: v0.8.0 Beta

Yes. You probably saw that in #309.
However these old issues were all related to the old FreeTube. A lot of these small things didn't make it over to the new version. Either because new modules were used that simply do not allow copy pasting of code or because the time frame for the rewrite release was too short to focus on some small features.

So this must be implemented again.

Might be a good first issue for new contributors tho.
Taking a look at src\renderer\components\ft-video-player\ might be a good start as there are the events specified for the player.

Hello, I just found this app by browsing the trending topics in Github. First off, love the idea of the app in general. I have been trying to get away from google's trackers for some time now so this is a great alternative!

Second, I would like to be assigned this issue. I am new to contributing and feel like this would be a good issue for me to tackle that's not something mundane like writing documentation.

Hello! Feel free to work on this if this is something you'd like to take a look at. Let me know if you have any questions about the project. Thank you so much for wanting to contribute!

Hello, just a little update. I have spent some time playing with the code and done some reading of the video.js documentation and I think I figured out a way to implement this feature. I have just been really busy with school, but I do still plan on fixing this!

Hello again, I have made some progress and was wondering if I could get some help with the last little bug. Here is my working branch for you to take a look at.

The volume scroll works as expected except for the fact that I actually have to click on the video player in order for it to start to take effect. I think the problem is that I put the following code in initializePlayer, but I'm not really sure where else to put it.

I think the problem actually lies with the active element. If you don't see an easy fix then don't worry about it.

Any help is appreciated!
