en Once a great extension turned into utter pre-alpha garbage. Sad. It used to work much better prior to latest update. Now it randomly shrinks video to a small rectangle, it forces its silly and unnecessary in-player UI by default, it reset my settings from before, it doesn't support hotkeys to scale up/down in steps as it used to. I can tell that developer worked a lot on this update and it's looking promising, but from relatively lightweight and easy to use extension which simply worked it turned into a mess.

en The latest and greatest update kind of messed up the defaults, basic stretch is not working, unless you manually set it for each video, that lovely over the video UI is non-functional, is totally botched on netflix, I understand things had to be updated to manifest v3 but.... maybe, just maybe, leave a "legacy" version on the extension available.
