Colour lifted where the stream went flat, and skin left exactly as it was.
Let the picture light the room.

Loved where it counts
What people wrote on the listing, as they wrote it.
“Wow! This not only fixed the black bars on all 4 sides of Prime Video on my ridiculous 32:9 monitor, but it even lets me get "in between" aspect ratios.”
Henry S. Chrome Web Store · Dec 2025“I've tried about a dozen different ones and this one is the only one that just works, even adds buttons to the players so you don't have to faff with keyboard shortcuts or blindly tune the zoom. It just works, amazing!”
Petr O. Chrome Web Store · Dec 2022“The best extension on the whole Chrome Web Store! It actually makes me happy when a video fills the whole monitor. A must-have if you have an ultrawide!”
George A. Chrome Web Store · Aug 2024“All the extensions i tried before this one were basicly a paywall or were underconver ads. This is the most easy, clean and user friendly i've used so far.”
Julian G. Chrome Web Store · Jun 2026“Does exactly what I was searching for and it has even the shortcut function. So when a video is in full screen, I can use the keyboard keys to increase or decrease the size without changing the video ratio!”
Khan C. Chrome Web Store · Dec 2025“Works fantastic with Paramount+ and even on Edge! Fixes awful looking video when watching shows that were shot in 16:9 but stream in 4:3. Either way, extension is simple, works and is clean. Well done dev!”
Dustin D. Chrome Web Store · Aug 2023“Awesome! I had several wide screen extensions that worked brilliantly for a while, but over the last few months they seemed to just start stretching horizontally and warping the image no matter what i did. Just tried this extension and I'm back to full widescreening again. many thanks!”
Adrian H. Chrome Web Store · Jun 2021“works like a charm, I never write reviews ussually, but I have tried so many yt zoom apps, but this is the best!”
Wardah A. Chrome Web Store · Jul 2026“Works perfectly for me on macOS, thank you! I sometimes play videos of hikes or mood videos while writing and this extension helps to fill up the screen perfectly without black bars.”
