This extension in a godsend for Ultrawide OLED monitors. As you know, Youtube does not allow videos in other formats except 16:9 (at most 18:9 on phones) so ultrawide (21:9 and larger) monitors get giant black bars on the side. With OLED monitors that is a big no-no, as over time the middle of the screen will start slowly burning in, and the sides will remain brighter. You want to actively use the entire screen to get uniform burn-in over time, and this extension fixes that problem.

    I love the exstension but I'd also love if it worked in limited funcionality on other websites too. Like I watch a video on a website and when i open to full screen it detects any black bars and adds ambient light. As someone with a ultrawide monitor it would be so usefull!

    App works great in theater and other non-full screen modes, however in full screen the playback seems to freeze until i scroll down. Not sure if I have the extension set up incorrectly or not. If it worked in full screen it would be 5 stars for me.

    edit: Incompatible with UltraWideo extension, having the extension on causes ambient video playback to not work. changed back to 5 stars as extension works perfectly now.

    Firefox 123 has a performance bug that lowers the ambient light framerate, but it should not completely freeze the playback. (Btw, the workaround for this performance drop will come in the next version of the extension.)

    Some other troubleshooting steps you could try are:
    Does the video fill your screen in fullscreen mode?
    Does the video or the ambient light playback freeze (or both)?
    In case the video freezes, have you enabled the setting "Video > Sync video with ambient light"? If yes, try to see if disabling it helps.

    This was EXACTLY what I was looking for to fill in those black bars on youtube videos! So much better :)

    Works as advertised. The settings are a little unintuitive at first but they make more sense as you play around with them.

    everything about the extension is fine, but the only issue is that 'fade in duration' option resets every time I open youtube in a new tab.
    or maybe I might be doing something wrong.

    The fade in duration, resolution and flicker reduction settings are reset when a GPU crash happens, to prevent a crash loop after a page refresh/new tab/restore. Because those settings can cause a crash when the GPU memory is full. Do you see any warning- or error messages in the DevTools console?

    Beautiful extension. I use this to reduce uneven burn-in from the black bars on my 21:9 and it just looks stunning. But it has way more functionality too. So many options, and it even removes black bars better than dedicated extensions for that. It's like ambient mode got an upgrade
  • ruma Skyfruit, преди 2 години
    Absolutely incredible but the latest update introduced a bug. When the mouse cursor hovers on the progress bar or the edges of the video (in regular mode not theater) it causes massive flickering and sometimes completely removes the video and only leaves the ambient light effect I hope this gets fixed soon.

    EDIT: The issue seems to be fixed now :) Cheers to the developer for such a quick response and fix.

    One of the best extensions ever made! Performs way better than YouTube's own ambient mode on my hardware and uses less resources too.

    I can reproduce it on some videos, not on all of them. But there seems to be some z-index fighting going on between the ambient light and the video. The fix seems to be to apply a z-index of -1 on the ambientlight class. I'll push an update.

    Update: Version 2.37.32 has been published. Let me know if it has been fixed.

    EDIT: Good to know that it has been resolved correctly. You're welcome!
