Summary
Need to remove unnecessary black bars from this youtube video you're watching? Ultrawidify is here for you.
NOTE: if this extension stretches the video instead of cropping, you are experiencing a bug with Microsoft Edge. Go to edge://flags/#use-angle and choose D3D9 from the options.
🌟🌟🌟 MAIN FEATURES 🌟🌟🌟 ⚠️ Features automatic aspect ratio detection (not all sites are supported — support may vary from site to site) ✅ Supports primarily youtube, vimeo, twitch, netflix, but will try to work on any website ↔️ Supports both cropping and stretching ✅ Works with youtube theater mode
❓ How do I use it? If the site does not utilize DRM, you can just sit back and let autodetection handle everything for you. On sites that use DRM — or on videos where autodetection proves unreliable — you can either use the extension popup or the keyboard shortcuts (note that extension shortcuts do not override site's default shortcuts) to set the aspect ratio manually.
