Google Chrome Getting Audio Indicators To Show You Noisy Tabs

Posted by Unknown on from the mumbling-in-dutch dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Google is working on identifying Chrome tabs that are currently playing audio (or recording it). The feature is expected to show an audio animation if a tab is broadcasting or recording sound. François Beaufort spotted the new feature, a part of which is already available in the latest Chromium build."

      How about muting all tabs except the one currently open with the option of enabling/disabling any tab explicitely?
