Overview

Chrome extension that moves YouTube playback controls to a different location

Ver2.0.0: Fixed an issue where the screen layout would break when entering ghost mode, and an issue in Shorts video mode where the ghost interface would disappear and video description text could not be hidden. Hide or move YouTube video controls (play button, seek bar, etc.) and Shorts information (subscribe button, creator info, etc.) to reduce elements that obstruct the video screen. Hover your mouse over the red dashed line near the bottom-left corner of the YouTube page. When the line turns yellow, it's ready—scroll your mouse wheel to activate the feature. Since the operation is completed with just mouse wheel scrolling, it's less likely to conflict with other keyboard shortcuts and takes effect immediately. Uses the patent-pending GUI "Ghost Interface".
