HD Camera Feed in Video Calls

Try to enforce HD (16:9) camera aspect ratio for web-video calls

HD Camera Feed in Video Calls: Chrome Extension

'HD Camera Feed in Video Calls' is a useful Chrome extension designed to improve web-based video calling services. It targets specific issues on platforms like Zoom, WhereBy, and Google Meet where the web clients may fail to correctly request HD resolution, causing video to appear stretched or distorted. The extension intercepts and modifies these requests, enforcing a 16:9 HD aspect ratio for supported cameras, or nicely downgrading for cameras with a 4:3 video output. These settings can be adjusted and there is an option to disable or enable the extension as needed.
Install from Chrome Web Store

this saved my day, i was having trouble on turing website
by Allan Falcão, 2024-07-01

is it possible to customise aspect ratio? As I known it doesn't work on some websites like Cambly, if you try to enforce the aspect ratio they'll just tell you unable to initialize the video session. It's really frustrating

Great extension. My camera is a lumix gx85. It was causing my video calls to be squished. Once I ran this extension, every site is working. I use webex for medical, google meet for personal, and sometimes zoom for business. All three are now working fine.
