Doesn't work on YouTube at all. Tried running it standalone with other extensions disabled. Probably fake reviews.

this is a nice extention.

Andrew Stanton 2025-04-06

For YouTube, this rotates the entire video player element. Unfortunately, this also rotates the the captions/subtitles along with it, which makes them hard/impossible to read. It would be nice if this would compensate for the player rotation to keep the captions oriented correctly.

Andrew-Joseph Magracia 2025-04-01

Noticed this doesn't work (at least for me) on YouTube if theater mode is on, and I don't see it listed in the extension description. Thinking this might be the cause of some of the low reviews. If this is unintended, then hopefully it can get fixed. Otherwise, maybe adding a big disclaimer in the description can help other people figure this out too. Outside of theater mode, it works fine. 4 stars as I wish I didn't have to scale/reposition the video after rotating to ensure it fits and stays within my screen.

Doesn't work at all

Namings Hard 2025-03-18

doesn't work on youtube but worked fine on other sites, maybe conflicting with some other extensions though I didn't try to find out. another big issue is that this extension doesn't rotate the player window with video, so you have to watch a vertical video in a horizontal player which was very annoying.

Darien D 2025-02-28

This works wonderfully!

Ferry Pinem 2025-01-20

Very helpful. Its working on almost all website.

西八老馬 2025-01-07

spirit 2024-11-21

i would love to have a save button that would save a what i changed, and when i press it it just do the same settings instantly.

油管总管长(油管总管长) 2024-10-02

goooooood plug-in. but I need: 1. “Move Horizontally” move to left, and “Move Vertically” to up. 2. add a “preset” button will be better (or, remember last setting). No need to set and adjust for every video. Just one-click. can you make it? that'll be perfect.

Snehasish Kundu 2024-09-30

It's good but I installed it for google meet....but it didn't work 🥲

Jay 2024-09-18

Work's well, great and useful extensions

Ramtin Hash 2024-06-25

doesnt work. fake app

Umesh Giri 2024-06-24

Works great, but in google meet if a user disconnects and joins again the rotate does not work again and have to refresh the page.

Wilrose Lo 2024-06-17

Works as intended, although I have some issues from the get go. First one is that it is hard to see the extension icon when using a chrome skin with dark colored toolbars, secon is that the "option" is doing nothing when I click it. I also suggest adding a reset option after rotating a video. All in all it's a good extension but obvious QoL options are lacking.

hq default 2024-06-01

For some reason is not working anymore. It stopped working after an update.

TomMy Dev 2024-05-28

Goodddddddd thank a lot . i foundddddddddd

Elto Desukane 2024-05-19

Doesn't work. There is no "R" to rotate. And no instruction on how to use... "When the installation is completed, you will see the Rotate that Video Player icon in your web browser toolbar." I don't see. There is no "Rotate that Video Player icon".

Valente Lam 2024-05-16

Works as describe. Would be helpful if the black video borders can be removed.

chen dustin 2024-05-04

doesn't work after new update, even I colse the other extensions.

Georges Feghaly 2024-05-04

The extension functions fine, but after rotating a YouTube video, it reverts to its original orientation instead of staying rotated when switching to full-screen mode

Lukka Peleng 2024-04-29

Work like a charm. What I really like is all number can be fill manually. Thank You.

Khalid A 2024-04-27

as advertised, thx

neutralhero999 2024-04-21

It worked fine alongside Enh*ncer for Youtube and Adbl*ck for Youtube, but the update broke it, even after deactivating all the other extensions and reinstalling this one. Even after reinstalling the browser itself, the rotation preset still wouldn't stick. Could you upload the last version somewhere? It was fine enough back then.

man sz 2024-04-16

After changing the UI, it still doesn’t work even after reinstalling.

KeunG Hades 2024-04-12

not work

GHOST 2024-01-28

the only one that works!

Mark Sacrébleu 2023-12-12

90° rotate works but cant see 2/3 of the video

Royce Benda 2023-12-08

This extension is unfortunately mostly useless due to the fact that it cuts off the top and bottom of a video that has been rotated since it lacks the ability to zoom out/resize/fit to screen.

Dhanang Wibowo 2023-11-26

Would give 5 stars if the dev give video zoom slider. When the video is rotated youtube hardly give the right video size when it's maximized.

It does what it says, however after rotation it is in the backfround and so tesxt from title of clip is in front of video. It needs to bring the focus of the video to the front so that it overlaps the text and comments that it is going to displace.
