  • (2025-06-13) Daniel Stefanov: Only scales top of video, bottom black bar always remains.
  • (2025-06-01) Shizuka: Honestly, what a stupid extension. It gives a bunch of presets but not one for 4:3, which is the most important one. It'd need to be approximately "104 H" if you wanted to convert videos that were originally a multiple of 224p tall to 4:3, but it's missing from the list. Even better than that would be simply giving the option to put your own custom preset, or removing all those useless presets and just putting "4:3 Stretch", "16:9 Stretch" and a few others, similar to the "UltraWidify" extension. It's a shame that one no longer works, cause it was perfect.
  • (2024-12-08) Lawrence Friduss: Not enough customizability. I don't like that I can only select from presets - I need to be able to select my own ratios.
  • (2024-11-12) Dominik Trujillo: This is an excellent little tool for the vast majority of use cases, and it just works. I've been using this to watch 4:3 videos on my 4:3 CRT and it's great. I've actually tested every obscure aspect ratio I could think of and I haven't found any that I haven't been able to correct with this extension. The only way to improve it is if you could make custom zoom and stretch options, because currently the highest zoom you can do is capped at 142%.
  • (2024-09-29) Alex Keltov: Works. Although took me a while to get how to use it. You will see "100%" number next to Fullscreen icon. Tooltips on each setting showing what it is.
  • (2024-06-29) Shreyas S: Can it be possible for Mobile
  • (2024-06-21) Santosh Kumar: works perfectly even on 16:10 screen
  • (2024-04-03) Neil Stirton: It either doesn't work, or there's no instructions supplied on how to actually turn it on. Restarted Chrome and my laptop, same result.
  • (2024-02-20) David Whitehead: Very useful tool since people like to stretch the Aspect Ratio.
  • (2024-02-02) Ultimate Gamer 99: Extremely useful extension, I hate when videos get aspect ratios wrong. Couple nitpicks tho, mainly that it doesn't reset after going to another video. I get some people like watching everything at the same aspect ratio tho so maybe just add it as an option? The other thing is, some options, like the 75% V, leaves black bars on the top and bottom. Would be extremely nice if it stretched to fit the screen (at least in theater mode). But otherwise this is perfection. (ignore the username this review is from, main google account wasn't letting me write reviews)
  • (2024-01-14) Γκουρτζιόβα: Τέλεια εφαρμογή,αλλά δυστυχώς σταμάτησε να δουλεύει. Ανανέωση: Ξαφνικά μετά απο 1 χρόνο, Ιανουάριος 2024,άρχισε να δουλεύει κανονικά.Είναι μοναδικό.

  • (2023-12-24) Vadermask: Can't get it to do anything. ??? I'm on my PC watching youtube in a tab, how do I apply these extensions and where are the instructions?
  • (2023-12-18) wisesolm: Perfect in every way😎
  • (2023-12-10) oxy.abdo999: THANK YOU SOOMUCH
  • (2023-10-28) Stephen Wylie: I like playing old-time (1960s & 70s) TV shows on old-time TVs. This extension (plus a special HDMI to RF modulator I have) works great for getting rid of the black bars on YouTube videos caused by my output device not adjusting properly to a 4:3 aspect ratio. No more having to painstakingly download & crop videos!

  • (2023-10-14) bioLarzen: Worked fine until now - today I noticed it disappeared. From "Ryan's"comment (6 June 2023) I learned that it does reappear once I reload the video - which is not really a hassle, as I only use this extension once in a while (but then it's VERY handy to have), jsut thought I'd let the dev know there seems to be a minor issue. Win 10, Chrome 118.0.5993.70

  • (2023-08-04) Peter Malar: Please, make hotkey for easy activate / deactivate. (not uninstall from chrome... just deactivate, so there is no "100%" sign in player)
