  • (2025-05-25) Some β€œKubert” Guy: Breaks sometimes Setting causes fullscreened video to be offset from the bottom: "Display YouTube header while in livestreams theater mode"
  • (2025-05-11) Sean: Works perfectly. Dose exactly what I wanted.
  • (2025-02-09) Larry Nguyen: Great work, exactly what I was looking for. Also removes most static elements for OLED screens.
  • (2025-01-18) Will Castillo: Please, Youtube, hire them. If something like this is finally implemented in the site, streams will become MUCH more popular.
  • (2024-11-12) apple_input: can you have an option to have channel's badges to be in front of name like twitch?
  • (2024-09-28) neyel8r: thanks! exactly what i needed for reading comments while watching & it also fills up the ultrawide nicely too πŸ‘
  • (2024-09-06) Michael Contreras: just what i needed! tried filters and everything but love this one the most.
  • (2024-08-17) Batnano: amazing,the only extention that actually works at this
  • (2024-06-18) Jeffrey Lai: it would be perfect if there is vertical version of this. would like to have such theater mode in vertical with bottom chat, i use split screen alot, so if it works it would be perfect
  • (2024-06-17) Puran: Best extension for watching live streams and VODs on youtube. I'm using widescreen(2560x1080,21:9) and I can watch streams on 1920x1080 with chat by using theater mode with this extension and turn it in to full screen with F11. Also using this for hide profile pictures, colored usernames, and it works with BTTV and 7TV. Previously used truffle but they changed everything to work only in their 'truffle chat', but this extension does everything better so I deleted truffle.
  • (2024-05-01) Pyr0: Love it but became unusable on Edge lately. It's like it's causing a memory leak, or something, quickly crashing the tab due to out of memory error.
  • (2024-04-28) Robert Murray: most useful extension ever
  • (2024-03-23) Reuven Uy: Used to work great but now seems broken. https://i.imgur.com/fUZQWvI.png Please help @NaPaliGhost It works great again thanks!
  • (2024-03-15) Gianluca Torre: YT broke and now this extension does not work anymore :(
  • (2024-03-09) Leilocke: I have the "Force dark theme while in livestreams theatre mode" enabled, but it still defaults to light mode.
  • (2024-03-07) Shay_Mendez98: The extension works properly, but is there any chance y'all could make an option to put it back under the video and not on the side, or if there's an extension that might do that? I really don't like having the chat on the side at all.
  • (2024-02-27) Fried Tofu: Some intern at Youtube decided to screw with the live chat and it broke the extension again.
  • (2024-02-25) Yuhan T: The extension was unfortunately broken again
  • (2024-02-20) VensJem: Was very cool. But now unstable af...
  • (2024-02-15) DarkSky1342: Thanks, I needed this cause for some reason YouTube built in option for chat on side broke for me
  • (2024-02-07) Jet: It is fantastic when it loads; I have recently had an issue where the extension only appears occassionally in the page when opening a video with a chat, so often times I cannot use the extension, unless I repeatedly refresh until it works Edit Feb 6, 2024: The extension is loading consistently now, and works well. Thank you, developers.
  • (2024-02-06) SaienS: Now it's working. Thanks dev. One of the most useful extension.
  • (2024-02-03) Derek Li: Works great, only thing is my "enhancer for youtube" extension interferes with it and bugs the description box over the video but the settings option can disable the box
  • (2024-02-02) Derek Lewis: Does what it says πŸ‘πŸΏ.
  • (2024-01-27) Ayrlin Renata: i spent 20 minutes trying to find this during my fav livestream after moving pc's because everything else i tried doesn't do fullscreen a fraction as well. it's simply the best.
  • (2024-01-03) Omarock: Amazing extension! I would suggest adding support for full screen and vertical resolutions (kinda like "Enable Portrait Mode " option on FrankerZ extension for twitch where it places chat under or over the video), would take it to the next level!

  • (2023-11-18) Supakorn Thanasupumpai: I've been using this extension and loved it, but few days ago something changed and my youtube chat moved into the center, leaving a black blank screen on the right, i've tried disable all other extensions, cleared cache/cookies and still can't find a way to fix this. The only way to fix is to click "Toggle chat over video" or "Toggle chat" buttons of this extension everytime i open youtube video. Also clicking "Toggle chat" makes "Toggle chat over video" and "Toggle chat side" buttons disappeared, but it fixes the layout position. Sorry to ask for help here, but I'd really appreciate any helps.
  • (2023-11-02) Scott Collins: This was exactly what I needed to enjoy watching live streams on YouTube. I don't understand why YouTube hides chat below when in theater mode.

  • (2023-11-01) julian.c: I think this extension is great. But I don't like how the stream/video's description is over the footage. There should be an option for me to remove it.
