Tweaks for YouTube

Thank you for this. Please enable blocking "live" videos from the suggested videos (right sidebar) and "streamed" videos from searches. I personally have no desire to watch those types of videos.

Works flawlessly. Though, some options could use extra clarity on what/how they impact YouTube.

Not working!

can you make subtitle selectable able to heighlight and copy subtitle text and make second subtitle and make video preview on suggestion videos when i hover over the thumbnail by mouse

After the update, only the audio is coming out and the video isn't coming out

i only got this extension to stop the "video paused. continue playing?" popup, enabled the setting, waited for the popup to appear and the extension didnt do anything. the extension probably good in other ways but i only want it for this specific setting which doesnt work.

It looks like under the "Appearance & Other Features" section, some of the content filters are broken for me. Specifically, the filters for "Live - Home," "Live - Subscriptions," "Upcoming - Home," "Upcoming - Subscriptions," and "Upcoming - Channel" no longer remove those videos when they're checked. They were working this morning, but not this afternoon. I even removed the extension from Chrome, reinstalled it, and redid all of my settings, but those filters still don’t work, while the others do. I'm still loving the product, and I hope those features can be fixed.

cool but could you also add a filter where you can change the fast forward and rewind so I can go frame by frame in a video

5 stars for the high pass filter alone. Game changer for watching videos with poorly edited audio.

after use the extension, youtube video will flashing few time and control bar timer will keep show 0 which lose timer function, may i ask any reason why happen this problem?

The extension stops working after restarting/relaunch chrome as of 2025-08-17. Only reinstalling the extension makes it work again. Disabling and reenabling does nothing, neither any combination of that and restarting chrome. Only full reinstall. Please fix as this is the best YT plugin and use it every day.

Excellent extension, but needs to be updated, as half of the features are no longer working as of 13/08/2025

Works fine on YouTube! Finally, I can go full screen while using the Equalizer extension. Please add a "low pass filter" too, it’s really useful. I’d even subscribe to your Patreon if you implement it. The "high pass filter" is great for removing rumble, but the low pass filter is also very helpful since some videos have horribly boosted high frequencies. This is the best EQ extension for YouTube. I’d give it 5 stars, it works flawlessly!

Why is "Decrease font size", "Hide avatars", and "Full video titles" suddenly not working?

While it still makes youtube better, as of august 2025 its content filters for watched videos no longer seem to function.

Hi youtube player has been updated some functions dont works anymore Also can u add volume keyword in Enable Custom Time Display In Player option? because i want volume percentage to be displayed in player bar

Great extension

Hi. Having an issue where comment section is not showing in the sidebar.

Any chance you could add option to disable translating titles?

Feature idea: While watching a playlist, automatically skip already watched videos (even 1% watched).

Got this to clamp down on player resolutions, mid writing this review/suggestion I went back and set every single perimeter on resolution to prefer 1080p and it will default to that instead of 4k, I think if I say prefer 1080p, it should be that instead of needing to tell it on every setting. side note, I wanted youtube to pause on open and need to be clicked to start playing, this does exactly what I want without issue and has the thumbnail displayed. If the dev wants to improve this, 1 option for resolutions and advanced options to set per mode resolution I can't see how to do this in extension if its an option, I have a script called "Resize YT To Window Size" it adds black bars on the top and bottom, probably the sides too (I have a 4k monitor and I set the window to half my screen) and it keeps the thumbnail ratio along with moving the header to below the player, not a massive change but it does stop it from coming down when its unwanted. There are 2 other extensions I use, one adds a copy video at current time button, a nice feature when I want to send someone a video at a current time, and another one that reloads the video with the current time in the url bar, another really nice feature but limited use case, I suspend tabs and I may be an hour or so into a 5+ hour long video, I either have to remember the exact time, or hope youtube will reload it at the correct time, the fact I got a script to do this specifically tells you how good that worked out. if those were implemented I could ditch all the scripts I use in favor of this extension. overall a heavy recommend with potential improvements.

HOW TO DISABLE SHORTS VIDEOS

Can't find the scroll to increase/decrease volume.

The extension is the best in its category. However, I experience a small inconsistency. I have set a Ctrl + combo to speed up the video. In firefox, it works correctly, but in Chrome, the website gets zoomed instead of the video speeding up (Chrome perhaps doesn't allow TweaksForYT to intercept that hotkey).

Atm, works as intended. I wish the subtitle could be improve like a "normal movie subs"

can you make me able to highlight and copy subtitle text and make second subtitle and make video preview on suggestion videos when i hover over the thumbnail by mouse

Incredible!!! Everything you could ever want and works so well and so easily and extensively configurable, I love it.

This is the best extension to customize youtube with the most features compared to other extensions. The only thing I would love to see, a grid view for the search results and related videos in the watch page, would that be doable?

Is there an option to make the youtube logo redirect to the subscription feed instead of home? If there isnt, can you make one? A previous extension had this feature and it makes navigating youtube a lot easier for me. Edit: Thank you that did it, and I dont have to disable this if I do want to look at the home feed.

Works great. Other than a small issue with the grid layout on the home page there are no other issues so far.

can show only progress bar option is the best

So helpful

I found a Bug , Next Chapter Shorcut Ket is Not Working ............. Previous Chapter Key is Working ......

Works absolutely fantastically. My only inquiry would be about the rich grid layout. When using this to make more videos appear on the homepage, rather than adding videos it simply lines up the current six youtube loaded and leaves empty space remaining on the page. I'm not sure if this is a youtube related issue or something with the extension.

Really, really nice! I was just looking through the list of extensions, and -- for the heck of it -- typed in "tweaks"... not knowing that there were [such] things... then, came across *this*! I wish that I had found it yeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrsss ago! My favorite features are the "hide progress bar" [and controls underneath], whenever I'm capturing video [with that GameBar thing in Windows]; also, the fact that whenever I click Play/Pause (shortcut K), the annoying arrow and/or pause animation doesn't show up on the recording... and that "cycling" animation (the turning arrow) whenever something is loading, etc. Truly, a really nice extension -- one of my favorites! So many other features -- too many to list -- that I like about this extension! I have well over a thousand videos that I have to edit -- and this (the above features, as well as others not mentioned) have probably saved me weeks of editing time! Oh, yes -- and one other thing... the ability to hide those, what I call "preview tags" (the Next Up videos at the end of a clip); especially, when they would block part of the video [playing in the background] background before the clip has finished playing.

Any option to force youtube plays original audio instead AI auto-dubbed?

Just about everything. It's almost overwhelming with the options, so it'd be nice if the UI was a little more "clear" in the options. I noticed also that the option to hide watched videos from "related" (side bar next to active video) doesn't seem to work. But hiding content on home seems to work great.

Awesome app. Would be five star if there were options to tweak buffering.

You can't really ask for anything more. Even more relevant now that youtube decided to blow up thumbnails so huge they only fit 3 to a row.

Wanted to decrease the size of preview windows and increase number of rows. Works great.

the extension is great, but i would love if the hide sidebar and hide related videos in sidebar would get fixed as they really screw up the video size and make a huge black screen on the bottom and right of the video. and it also screws up the seeking as it appears way above the actual seek bar because of the black screen thing.

It's awesome. It makes everything run smoother and gives you some cool customization options. Only thing I’d suggest is fixing the bug where the queue won’t open when the first video in the queue is a short. Reply: Sorry, I meant to suggest a fix that bug from youtube. I know it's a bug on youtube, not from this extension. Many thanks for your reply.

Please can you add a feature to make the progress bar thicker? Or not thicker but sensitive to show the video preview in a much wider area above and below?

Loved it but it freezes chrome after scrolling few short videos. Please fix the issue.

Worked great for a long time, but with latest Chrome updates it now has major issues. Video size will not render correctly, sidebar won't show, controls aren't visible. Sometimes when you reload the page it will work, but then the problems come back. I've disabled it for now. Hopefully the developer can fix it.

lightweight, works!

Hey I am just wondering whether it is possible to Turn off the screen of the video playing and just listening to the audio. That would be a great option! 😄🙂

Gives you the control that you wish you had with your YouTube experience.

cannot be used to block autoplay of videos opened in a new tab when you open the tab. For this you can use: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/enhancer-for-youtube/ponfpcnoihfmfllpaingbgckeeldkhle

probably the best Youtube extension i have ever gotten and i have gotten a lot.
