Old challenge forms may still be present on the page at the time we search for a new wrapper of playback buttons.

If the new listening challenge uses a "cartoon" form, and the previous challenge was a listening challenge using a "normal" form, the old wrapper is detected instead of the new one.

This can be fixed by restricting the search.

Most certainly due to the last rounded position being too big.

Most certainly due to the fact that stop is called on the sounds before playing them, no matter what their current state is.

it does not work with new english from russian tree
but it works with the old one

Sometimes I reach a word in the phrase and when I want to come back to write my answer I accidentally trigger the full control panel, which is a bit annoying.

My idea is that maybe the controls could be placed anywhere else, like above the phrase and buttons.

Those buttons could apply 0.5 ms steps (/ more or less depending on the duration of the current sound?).

See this comment.

Could be part of the duo-toolbox library.

See for example this comment.

Chinese for English speakers. Firefox Release 105.0.1. I can't use any of the controls

slow payback settings are not saved

Would it be possible to display controls of normal speech to the left and slow speed speech to the left as it is ?
Imho it will avoid confusion.
Is it possible to display both controls simultaneously to allow for fine tuning of playback speed ?
for example

We may want to use the same shortcuts as Youtube.

The controls don't show up in "Listen and respond" exercises. Using 1.2.9 in Firefox 82.0.2, Fedora 33.

Original reports here and here.

This may be due to the cleanup of obsolete controls forms happening too late.

The current width being the default / smallest available.

it does not work with Yandex - a chromium browser on Mac OS 10.14.6

The idea would be to define each class name only once, and reference them in the CSS-in-JS stylesheets via constants.

Hi, sorry for my ignorance, but I'm trying to create a script for duolingo to automatically play stories, but for this to work I should somehow have access to audio that by default is not shown in HTML. I saw that you managed to solve this problem but when I tried to read your code I didn't understand how you did it (I'm still a beginner), could you not explain more directly to me what I should research to be able to solve this problem. Sorry if this isn't the best place to ask questions, but it's the only one I found

Hi
Any chance you can override / reset new boy / girl voices ? those in english & spanish cources ( and may be others)

Brightcove Player Version | 6.64.2
Windows 10 Pro (4-bit)

Before adding the Firefox add-on, this media player was working fine.
Added duolingo-tts-controls to FF (latest version of each). No other changes during this time.
Brightcove no longer displaying video, but I could still hear audio. Cannot use a different media player, because the content I need is embedded --using Brightcove-- in an educational website that I need to use.

Disabled this add-on ONLY (left all other FF add-ons enabled).
Brightcove is working fine again, now (with duolingo-tts-controls add-on enabled, no other changes on my PC).

Not a programmer or coder, so I have no idea why this media player and this add-on don't play well together.
Good luck!

Duo internal shortcuts are cntrl+space & cntrl+shift+space for slow speed
So when you controls are displayed & i use duo controls to initiate playback ... it start playin at 2 speed simultaneously

Have bigger sliders, bigger buttons, and maybe adapt a little bit Duolingo's UI to use the whole screen?

There seem to be at least two different cases for this one:

• the starting position is not reset for the slow TTS, seemingly at the UI level only (the sound actually starts at 0s),
• the starting position is not reset for the normal TTS, at least at the sound level. This one seems to only happen when the same challenge is proposed for the third time (and after).

In both cases, everything goes back to normal after the first playing of the sound, but this is certainly due to the default startPosition being applied after the end event.

Find new keyboard shortcuts to replace the conflicting ones.

Now that the playback buttons are placed inside labels, the space around the toggle buttons triggers playing the sound.

Also (but quite less easy to fix), :active and :hover effects for the playback buttons are handled via the label state, meaning that hovering / pressing a toggle button also makes the corresponding playback button appear hovered / pressed.

I have animated characters blocked ... may be that's why

In the course Spanish for German speaker there is one type of questions where the controls are missing:

According to your explanation in this issue, I extracted the challenge type to be challenge challenge-translate.

Thanks for the addon, finally a way to change the volume for duo!

It seems like there are some more quirks coming from the "howler.js" library.

The seek method, for example, also returns wrong results when the sound currently being played is a "clone", and not the original (first) sound: https://github.com/goldfire/howler.js/blob/9117525f0883ddb995f99ee843bba7f6d3442590/src/howler.core.js#L1584.

In fact, all kind of problems start to happen once the library resorted to clone sounds (via _inactiveSound(): https://github.com/goldfire/howler.js/blob/9117525f0883ddb995f99ee843bba7f6d3442590/src/howler.core.js#L2037, because the _playLock flag is set, or because no sound is paused: https://github.com/goldfire/howler.js/blob/9117525f0883ddb995f99ee843bba7f6d3442590/src/howler.core.js#L750). This seems to happen mostly with "non-standard" use, when the network is slow, and much more consistently on Firefox.

Could this be the (one of) the reason(s) why the original playback buttons stop the sounds at first?
