closed tabs not really closed with Tab Mix Plus

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Using this extension together with Tab Mix Plus when closing a tab it disappears from tabbar but is not removed from memory. This becomes especially apparent with sites with audio - e.g. Youtube - as the audio continues playing in background.

To repoduce:

  1. Install this
  2. Install Tab Mix Plus
  3. Restart
  4. Go to youtube.com and play any video
  5. Close the tab
    Expected: Audio stops
    Actual: Audio continues

Does it stop the audio if VT isnt installed?

I ask since there is or was also apparently a bug for "tab closed but plugins continue to play" in Firefox. Can you check? Also what tabs are being saved in the session files if you do that?

Audio stops right away without VT. It's just with VT+TMP, both on their own works fine.

I can't check the session file right now, no access to a PC for w hile here, only mobile.
