en please add custom zoom amounts instead of fixed zoom amounts, makes no sense the way it is now, if we want to fit the video to the screen without cutting anything off, we may not be able to (I can't on the one video I tried, it's either no zoom at all or the first zoom setting being too big and cutting the sides off) will easily rate 5 stars once a slider+decimal or some other linear control has been added to allow any zoom amount

en ctrl + up arrow is zooming in ctrl + down arrow is zooming out please set them to move viewpoint up and down for better usage the above was resolved ! thanks ctrl + left/right arrow moves the vewpoint but it also takes me to the previous/next section of the video. Seems like youtube already binded that shortcut for that functionality. Plus it would be nice to have a shortcut to zoom in and out. A nice feature could be to create a menu for the users to set the shortcuts they find better, "video speed controller" extension has that menu its really good

en YT Zoom is not working for me. Extension active but there's no magnifier button at YouTube while playing a video (clicking the extension button does not activate it either). Keyboard controls do nothing too. Doesn't work in Chrome, Brave or Opera. Are the controls different on Mac? Sus. Currently rated 3.7 w/10 ratings.

en It is the best application for zoom and video control. It includes moving the point view of the video. I was looking for that a lot. It deserves a hundred stars.

en works somewhat good but need to be improved: - the zoom is persistent between webpages where should be resetted, this is uncomfortable and also make problems on youtube tiles previews by corrupting web page behaviour - clicking on the lens icon several times to disable the zoom, but forgot to restore the video offsets... so wrong black bands displayed
