UltraWide Video 21:9

Allows wider than average screens (eg.21:9) to play online video content and fit the screen properly in fullscreen mode.

UltraWide Video 21:9 is a Chrome extension designed specifically for users with ultrawide monitors, such as those with 21:9 aspect ratios. Traditional online video players often do not scale properly on these wider screens, causing black bars or stretched images when in fullscreen mode.

This extension ensures that online video content automatically adjusts to fit the entire width of your ultrawide display without distortion, providing an immersive, cinematic viewing experience. Whether you're streaming movies, TV shows, or other media, UltraWide Video 21:9 enhances your video playback by eliminating unused screen space and optimizing aspect ratio handling, making full use of your monitor's capabilities.
