- after the latest update , when I try to resize the video - it just moves to the bottom of the page. the previous version worked only in "experimental" mode but it worked without any issues, and now the video just goes to the bottom, PLEASE FIX
- João Pedro dos Santos Pereira
- Don't know why but this version updated doesnt work well , the version that had the experimental option worked better for me.
- Huzaifa Sheikh
- good
- Zoruf (Zoruf)
- was working really well for over a year now it has black bars on 1 of the side because of experimental mode is gone
- Son Goku
- After the update, the video is no longer centered in the middle and is moving to the bottom right corner. Everything was fine before.
- Vincent Tuminello
- It was great when it was working but as of recent it stretches embedded video players on sites where the player isn't even maximized and it no longer works on YouTube. Not sure what is going on.
- Wiraphan Kan-in
- It's harder to use than before. Some websites that used to work now don't work. They're unresponsive. Overall, it's much worse than the previous version of Chrome.
- Ethan Tan
- It works..... thank you.
- 재돌돌
- ince early this morning, whenever I try to stretch YouTube or Twitch to 21:9, the screen keeps expanding and shrinking repeatedly, and it won’t stay fixed. Can you help me fix this issue?" Do you want me to also make it slightly more formal, like for tech support?
- Thomas Teachey
- Didn't know there was a update until I read the other review's. But I used to love the extension for my wide monitor's, but now it doesn't want to save the aspect ratio anymore and I have to personal change it every time. We need a roll back or the dev's really need to fix this now.
- Sam Scott
- Does the job, but I find that it introduces some motion judder, noticeable while trying to watch the NFL. So there's a tradeoff: watch in pillarboxed standard aspect ration image on my ultra-wide monitor or use the Zoom setting, filling the screen beautifully, but simultaneously losing some of the motion smoothness. Can you fix that please? Thanks.
- Uchiha Gcc
- bring back the older version it was so better than this
- Name NoFam
- 2.0.1 youtube fullscreen working after 1+min
- NoOne
- I prefer the previous version because it takes time for the full screen to take effect in youtube. And also, it reverts back every now and then to the default settings.
- Cory Lahey
- Dear DEV, I love this extension and think its essential for ultrawide monitors when watching YouTube, but after the update it takes about 15-30 seconds for the stretch to take effect in full screen mode ( yes I'm on version 2.0.1 ). I tried using the shortcuts but they also seem to not work. I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue or if you working on fixing it so it takes effect faster or immediately?
- Bradley Huebner
- only works intermittently. turns on and off, completely unuseable. try again, guys. this update is busted.
- Isuza
- wasnt working after the update but it is now so thank you dev team!!
- Imam Hasan Turzo
- Not working after the update. Please fix it as soon as possible.
- El Talli
- After the update, the 21:9 aspect ratio keeps fluctuating and doesn’t work properly. This stupid update shouldn’t have been released. Please roll it back immediately.
- A lawless
- its broken, editing shortcuts results in the toggle working once and never again afterwards. the old version was perfect. and now its broken and useless. thanks guys....
- Maggie Bouzounis
- New update broke it for the one specific use case I had which was stretching video to fit a 4:3 screen
- eric hagemann
- new update broke it, rollback. as the saying goes "if it aint broke, dont fix it" if it was working, why change it
- Keith Campbell
- this new version breaks things. a rollback would be preferred and im looking into new alternatives
- Алексей Курицын
- Did't work since 24 october.

- Brook Richardson

- Carter Wilson
- Works perfectly
- Louis Oger
- Indispensable.
- B36
- It used to work perfectly before the update, but now it’s completely useless and doesn’t function at all. Before, it only worked on YouTube and not on Netflix — but now it doesn’t even work on YouTube anymore. That’s why I don’t want the app anymore. (You really need to fix this issue!)
