Ultrawidify: Perfect Aspect Ratio for Ultrawide Videos
Extension stats
Ranking
Extension summary
Need to remove unnecessary black bars from this youtube video you're watching? Ultrawidify is here for you.
If the extension stretches the video instead of cropping, you're experiencing a Google Chrome bug. Go to chrome://flags/#use-angle and select D3D9.
🌟🌟🌟 MAIN FEATURES 🌟🌟🌟 ⚠️ Features automatic aspect ratio detection (not all sites are supported — support may vary from site to site) ✅ Supports primarily youtube, vimeo, twitch, netflix, but will try to work on any website ↔️ Supports both cropping and stretching ✅ Works with youtube theater mode
❓ How do I use it? If the site does not utilize DRM, you can just sit back and let autodetection handle everything for you. On sites that use DRM — or on videos where autodetection proves unreliable — you can either use the extension popup or the keyboard shortcuts (note that extension shortcuts do not override site's default shortcuts) to set the aspect ratio manually.
