Use quiet mode
Use quiet mode to temporarily lower the volume mediaplayers
AccessKit's Quiet Mode allows you to temporarily lower the volume of a single Mediaplayer, or all the Mediaplayers in an Exhibition simultaneously. This is especially useful during group tours, neurodivergent hours, or social events.
Quiet Mode does not erase the Mediaplayer's volume setting configured via its
[edit]
page, but rather works to temporarily override it.
You can configure the Quiet Mode override on either an individual Mediaplayer or
an entire Exhibition, in both cases via the Quiet Mode field at the bottom of its
[edit]
page.
Settings
Setting | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
Default | 1 | Full volume |
Min | 0 | Silent |
Max | 2 | Double volume |
Mid | 0.5 | Half volume |
