Panopto Plus adds a few features to the webcast page on NUS Panopto websites. These changes also apply to webcasts on LumiNUS. It also allows you to customize your webcasting experience.
The Chrome Extension serves 3 main purposes:
1. Add transcript and subtitles to (most) of your webcasts
2. Add silence trimming. Sections in the webcast where there is no speech are automatically skipped.
3. Add various user interface improvements:
o Wider range of webcast playback speeds with a slider / more options
o Persistent settings across all webcasts / webcasts under a module e.g. always start playing webcasts at 2.0x speed
o Volume Booster to amp the volume up beyond the maximum when it's too soft
o Minimizable sidebar for all webcasts (you can now split screen with all webcasts)
o Carousel customization
Additional features include:
a. White noise reduction & audio normalization
These features are toggleable and customizable on the settings page.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
