THIS IS NO LONGER NECESSARY AND SPOTIFY MAKES IT VERY HARD TO MAINTAIN THIS FOR NO GOOD REASON.

Spotify video is too small and they took forever to realize no one wants to watch video that small. Embiggen came about to solve that problem. Well what do you know? Spotify added the feature in July 2021! Great! Nope... For some reason they don't hide the controls when you don't need them, and there's no speed control and keyboard forward and backwards is still broken.

Hey Spotify! Hire Me. I'll fix your stuff...

Features:

• Size Spotify Video to full page with nothing else taking up space • Skip forward and backward 10 seconds with left and right arrow keys • Skip forward and backward 30 seconds with up and down arrow keys or J and L keys (like YouTube) • Increase / Decrease Speed with PageUp and PageDown keys

New in 1.5.3 and 1.5.4
