Changes YouTube theater mode to resemble Twitch theater mode when chat is enabled

Image from store Twitch Theater Mode for YouTube
Description from store TTM expands the main video view and moves the chat box to the right hand side. Additionally, all other on-screen elements get hidden. All changes revert upon leaving theater mode. Leave a comment in the reviews if things bug out and I'll fix them over time. 👍 v5.01 Updated March 7: fix for chatbox being short or hidden when window is narrow v5.00 Updated March 2024: made modifications accounting for YouTube's Theater Mode Update v4.00 Updated June 2023! 🥳🎉 (pre-v4.00 Updated June 2020... 😓)

  • (2024-05-30) Mark Matthews: Works awesome, just press Cinema and it works
  • (2023-08-22) Nuno: it glitched out and now the chat is over the livestream
  • (2023-08-20) Haidaruddin Muhammad Ramdhan: Works great 💖 (21 Aug 2023)
  • (2023-08-20) 信青樹: I have tried many extensions and feel that this extension works the most like Twitch's theater mode. Thank you so much. (This comment was translated by DeepL)
  • (2023-08-19) Mik Sharov: This extension is the only reason for me to watch live streams on youtube. unfortunately it broke a bit and now the chat is overlaid on top of the video, and also now there are "remnants" of the page outside the video player's borders. without this extension, watching live broadcasts is horrible and that's why I just don't watch them
  • (2023-07-14) Tobias Rudin: Works well most of the time, it doesn't catch if u enter a livestream with theater mode already enabled and also seems to be a memory leak(prob from something related to chat, maybe storing too many messages in memory?)
  • (2023-07-02) syahrezank games: Works like a charm, if still not try refresh a bit, and change back and forth between teather mode and default one
  • (2023-06-30) TheRocki: Updated quickly when it broke, been using it for years.
  • (2023-06-29) Volkan Güler: çalışmıyor
  • (2023-06-08) OrcanArtz: I love you, best extension ever! Little bug: The profile picture from the channel is twice times in the upper left corner.
  • (2023-05-22) Deft Hallows: Pretty annoying that I have to always remember to switch back to default mode after leaving the live stream. Otherwise it would break the next video/live stream. This has been an issue for a long time and it needed to be fixed.
  • (2023-04-27) Eric Liu: worked on ultrawide monitor while the other one I tried did not.
  • (2022-12-10) Pizza: Only problem is when you hover over the stream player the name of the streamer and there pfp appears twice besides that good so far
  • (2022-10-26) Sora hanari: Thank you
  • (2022-10-09) Iversman: Works sometimes then suddenly stops working. You have to uninstall the extension the install it again to get it working again. Rinse and repeat the process many times a week. Unreliable but great when it does work.
  • (2022-09-27) Evaz Wiclousky: ¿Podrias hacer que se pueda aumentar la Font del chat? se ve pequeño. Saludos.
  • (2022-09-22) Akame Oda: FINALLY watching streams on YT without half the screen being dead space.
  • (2022-09-09) Lucas Primc: Perfect. Thanks for making YouTube live experience decent, something that YouTube themselves can't do apparently. They wanna beat Twitch but can't even give people a decent experience and implement stupid features instead of useful ones.
  • (2022-07-23) Chris McFarland: Doesn't seem to work.
  • (2022-06-21) Devin O: Amazing extension, bravo to the creator. Just refresh YouTube, click Theater Mode on any video with a live chat or live chat replay, then CTRL+ make chat bigger and CTRL- to make the video bigger.
  • (2022-03-15) Shadonic: When it works, it's very nice. However, regular Theater mode constantly breaks for normal videos that aren't live streams, meaning the chat bar still shows up on the right when there is no chat. Very annoying as I have to constantly disable and re-enable the extension.
  • (2021-12-07) Omarock: Broken as of today.
  • (2021-11-13) 零一公主MKDY: 我覺得普通,因為很常出問題。不過弄成這樣的介面真的好很多。
  • (2021-11-05) Deoplo: Compared to another extension that does a similar thing, this just doesn't compare anymore.
  • (2021-11-05) Mu'adz I. Albantani: it is good but still there some bug and made my youtube slower, I hope you can fix it so that it can become better because I like it so much
  • (2021-09-01) Brandon Loehlein: Good extension, two minor complaints. Logo for the channel duplicates in the top left of the screen and you can't hide chat in theater mode which is a bummer. Otherwise very solid. Let us hide YT Chat and it's 5 stars for sure.
  • (2021-08-22) RootBeer Slayer: Great extension, but it occasionally pulls up chat from the previous live stream that I've watched. Not sure why...
  • (2021-08-15) Victor Secundo: tirando q de vez em quando buga e a tela apaga eu não tenho o que reclamar
  • (2021-08-15) Yami Shoumetsu【Shin'eitai】【Watamate】【SSRB】【Kronies】: ah finally found an extension that do what I really want....I hate how youtube doesn't maximize all the available spaces once your monitor goes above 1080p and this extension just does it perfectly...
  • (2021-07-28) Dan: Great! can you make it scorlable so we can see the video description and comment section. thanks
  • (2021-07-18) Данис Валеев: Есть один большой минус. иногда при выходе из театр мода не выходит, появляется чёрный экран и пропадает интерфейс и ничего не сделать, чат при этом остаётся. Также при переходе в театр мод и обратно режим чата сбрасывается на "интересные сообщения"
  • (2021-07-15) Chiffonkek: Makes Youtube livestreams a lot more bearable, just tall/narrow layout which places live chat underneath the stream like Twitch does currently. Thanks for extension!
  • (2021-07-04) Léo de coupigny (-Sight): Exactly what i wanted
  • (2021-05-17) Afonso Ricardo Pereira: It's good, but needs an option to hide chat
  • (2021-04-12) Kanti: Does exactly what it says. A good, niche addition. Suggestions: 1) Why are 5 megabytes of 'screenshots' included in the download of what should be just a tiny .js file? Put your screenshots on the store page, not my hard drive. 2) It would be nice if you could resize the chat. Either click+drag, or via some settings.
  • (2021-03-31) Chu Tuyền: same 90% twitch chat. I love this, thank you!
  • (2021-03-10) BBS: Hi can you please to move the chat to left so that languages (like Hebrew) writing from right to left can watch the live broadcast with the chat
  • (2021-03-09) Mars: works exactly like expected. no idea why Youtube hasn't implemented it on its own, it makes the experience much more enjoyable.
  • (2021-03-03) Matt Hoffman: Thank you. Google decided on the stupidest layout ever and you finally fixed it. Thanks.
  • (2021-03-01) 陳姵沛: Nice but sometimes it will have some bugs Normal video don't have chat should be like original theater mode or add a switch can turn on/turn off more convenience BTW it still is a great job Please get it better than better :D
  • (2021-03-01) 王以德: so nice
  • (2021-02-24) Zubkavadarba: Наконец-то нашел
  • (2021-02-21) Izu: Exactly what I was after because Youtube seems pretty awful at supporting chat properly. Works fine in Edge out of the box, too.
  • (2021-02-18) Noleen: 👌
  • (2021-01-28) RODEGG: Doesn't work for me at all I have it installed on Google Chrome.
  • (2021-01-20) Ludo: Works great so far. I have no idea how Youtube can think their chat implementation is anywhere near acceptable.
  • (2021-01-17) JJ Gaming: Really good extension. Before this, I had to watch in minimized if I wanted to interact with chat.
  • (2021-01-11) Wyatt Cooper: When using youtube's default view, half of the screen is taken up by empty margins on either side of the player. When using theatre mode, you can't even view chat. This extension makes up for youtube's UI shortcomings perfectly.
  • (2021-01-03) Timothy L: Neat for livestreams. Though I hope that in the future there will be a toggle button to turn the "Twitch" mode on and off, as I do not want that feature sometimes if I'm just watching a video which premiered with a live chat that is pretty irrelevant.
  • (2020-12-30) Giovanni Guerra: this has made YouTube live streams bearable thank you sooo much, echoing other peoples sentiment that it would be nice to have a hide chat option in theatre mode (full screen is not 100% the same as this would allow to navigate tabs etc.), also would love an option to move the chat left/right of the stream as well. either way as is its still great!
