I was going through the list of all apps claiming to be able to change the aspect ratio as I am about to watch Zack Snyders Justice League, but the 4:3 ratio is awful, anyway this extension should be featured, its so simple, you go in full screen and click some arrows then press 0 to hide the extension in the background. Life saver, I couldn't sit through a 4 hour movie looking at a narrow square in the centre of my screen. I am now about to watch it in 16:9 thanks to this extension. Thank you. I was about to give up.
