Works great, but I'd like it better if it put black bars around videos that don't match the window's aspect ratio. Trying to watch a wide-screen video with blinding white bars on the top and bottom ruins this extension for me.

This is the best one. If it doesnt work, Use CCleaner to delete ur cache and check ur registry for errors, fix any registry errors and try again it should work.

Does exactly what I need it to do. I just wanted a way to make a video fill the screen of the current tab and not go full screen and it works perfectly.
