It just works

Toggling subtitles to english doesn´t work. ¨v¨ stops or plays the video instead.

Fantastic, does what it says. Just make sure to refresh after opening extension 1st time!

Scott Clark 2024-04-04

Loving it. Some other feature suggestions that would help screenshot addicts like me: Faster UI hiding, and change title of tab to what I'm watching. My screenshot program (ShareX) automatically names files after the tab, so all my Star Trek screenshots so far have just been called "Netflix_-_Vivaldi_123.png"

Simple and does what it says. I have a suggestion, can you disable the elapsed time?

Seems to work fine so far. Just what I was looking, for other extensions didn't work on Netflix even though they too use a HTML video element.

This is the only widescreen 21:9 extension that works for me on any site. Unfortunately, this just works with Netflix. It also fixes the issue where Netflix defaults to stretching some videos extra wide without increasing the height.

works great! i finally found a chrome/ edge extension that allows netflix to run on ultrawides. -1 star for no 32:9 button, but the zoom in and zoom out buttons can get around this.

It was good when it worked, was nice to zoom in a little bit. Unfortunately it doesn't work in full-screen anymore, at least in the last few months for me.

George Hank 2021-03-02

Doesnt work. More trouble than its worth because when i click on the plus button it only enlarges one side of the screen while leaving the other side untouched. So im saying goodby to this extension.

Ultrawide not working

Kokodjo 2020-02-02

For me without quality menu for video playback not to use. Everything else that makes this extension, I can do that too. I do not need the extension for that. Too bad. Was once good.

FINALLY! Tried 14 other extensions. This was the first one to work on 32:9 aspect ratio displays. All the others just stretched the width and left black bars at the top and bottom. Thank you! :D
