Exploring the Power of Chrome Extensions in Video Streaming: A Look at One of the Best Chrome Extensions for Video Players

The good: automatically use widescreen mode, unlike other extension where you need to manually select 21:9 for example; Not good: upscale and stretch somehow are both stretch. Using on a maxthon browser.

Finally! A video zoom extension that allows you to manually zoom in the exact amount you need instead of just maximizing 100% I have an ultrawide monitor and this is the only extension that has allowed me to properly view letterboxed videos with aspect ratios that fall between the "standard" 16:9 and my 32:9 without zooming so far in the top/bottom get cut off. For others out there with this problem just set this extension to use Normal mode and up the scaling. 1.33 for X and Y worked for me.

At least on some sites, such as the BBC "https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/guide", when I open any video in fullscreen, it works perfectly the first time, but if I go off fullscreen and then try going fullscreen back again on the same video without having closed the video first, the videos will show a black bar at the bottom. YouTube does not have this problem. By the way, only since recently has this extension been able to work on the BBC, and many adult sites as well, so, thank you.

There are things to improve, the whole experience could be smother, but this SHOULD be a MANDATORY standard feature.

Very cool extension ! For 38" monitor I prefer to use normal mode with scale 1.24 for X and Y to prevent any cropping.

If i use UltraWideo in combination with the chrome addon "FastStream Video player" its not possible to scale X or Y. Sadly nothin happens. Would be great if you could fix that :) otherwise. great addon *thumbsup*

Its good, it works. Why are you still reading this? install it :)

forgot i had it installed, it's that good working like magic ?

God bless you! An extension that we didn't know we needed, for real!

Using it occasionally. Quite happy with the built-in functionality and frequent updates. Tested Quality Enhancer feature - to me it gives best effect for UHD series, but for lower resolutions it's so-so.

great extension

Original review: "Worked perfectly yesterday, doesn't work at all today. Support page just says "try a different browser or update your gpu drivers". I did both of these things." In response to the developer's reply, I do not know where the support page is that I found before. I found it while trying to search within github. I don't have a github account and that appears to be the only way to open a support ticket. In additional testing, I have found that the plugin does still work on most sites - youtube, max, etc. - but that Disney+ has presumably made some change to prevent correct functionality. As such, I have revised my rating.

Need hotkey option to disable/enable.

Works flawless

too bad they remove the shortcut keys function ;(

Finally!! The only one that works with all players! Not only with the "popular" ones

This work

Seems pretty neat so far!

the best

Must have extension for removing black bars on a browser!

I stumbled upon this extension, it's a game-changer for movie nights. Super easy, super awesome.

UltraWideo, After try many extensions i can say that this is one of the best extension for change aspect ratio of a video. I'm using this extension from very long time on my pc and android phone and this never disappointed me. Try it without any doubt you going to love this. Hat's off for the developer.❤️ Thank You.

i don't know why people hate the new shortcut the extension is fantastic now thank you for your hard work man ! it's better to have shortcuts built in chrome instead of extension and the new ui looks sweet

UltraWideo Only used in full screen mode Can it be used without full screen?? Zoom to Fill - Ultrawide Video will interfere Can be used without full screen

Why change something when it's not broken??? Used to work for HBOmax, now it doesn't. Still works for Netflix and other streaming websites. I guess the update fixed not having to refresh when you switched between upscale and stretch.

was good. WAS. new update remove shortcut making this extension less easy to use
