[Feature Request]: Volume management

[4164696f73]

Guidelines

• I have searched the issue tracker for open and closed issues that are similar to the feature request I want to file, without success.
• I have searched the documentation for information that matches the description of the feature request I want to file, without success.
• This issue contains only one feature request.

Problem Description

Make it more advanced etc. Improvements similar to what Enhancer for Youtube offers.

Proposed Solution

1. Option to reset volume to default after switching to another video.
2. Separate volume adjustment for mouse and arrow keys. For example, I want to set "up arrow" to increase volume by 5%, but mouse wheel (scroll) to increase it by 1% (same for decreasing volume).
3. Temporarily remember the volume settings of last video (not permanently, closing Freetube would forget that).

Alternatives Considered

Issue Labels

Additional Information

Legends say I only remembered like half or less of what I wanted to suggest...

Number 3 is how FreeTube behaves today, the volume is remembered across videos in the same window.

It doesn't. Every time I have to reload the app (which is very often), it resets the volume to full.

Not sure why you are surprised about something resetting when you reload, that clears all temporary data including the saved volume. We have never recommended reloading FreeTube, why exactly are you doing it?
I have never in two years of using and working on FreeTube had to reload.

Because every time I lose connection, the client grinds the currently playing video to a halt. So it's just easier to press "CTRL + R" than to copy the title, put it into the search bar, and going back to the same video, or to click on share, copy the URL, then paste that into the search bar. 3 User Interactions vs 1 User Interaction.
