Full-Height Theater Mode for YouTube
Overview
Makes YouTube theater mode fill the window height, with an optional player-only view that hides the page content below the video.
Full-Height Theater Mode makes YouTube's theater player use the full height of your browser window. FEATURES • Theater mode fills the window height instead of stopping short of the bottom edge • The video keeps its original aspect ratio, so nothing is cropped or stretched • Player-only view hides the title, description, comments, and recommendations below the player • Normal mode, fullscreen, Shorts, the home page, and embedded players are left unchanged • Your settings sync across devices signed in to Chrome HOW TO USE 1. Open any YouTube video. 2. Turn on theater mode with T or the player's theater button. 3. Click the extension icon to turn the extension on or off, or to enable Player-only view. NOTES • Esc exits fullscreen, not theater mode. • Black bars appear only when the window and video have different aspect ratios. This is expected and keeps the whole frame visible. PRIVACY The extension does not collect, sell, or share personal data. There is no analytics, no tracking, and no external server. Your two preferences are saved in Chrome's built-in sync storage and follow your Chrome profile. PERMISSIONS • Storage — saves your two preferences and syncs them with your Chrome profile. • Access to youtube.com — needed to adjust the theater player on watch pages. The extension does not read, collect, or transmit page content.
