FilterVideo gives you instant control over any video content, whether on popular platforms like YouTube, Netflix, and Prime Video, or other websites with video content. With a single keyboard shortcut, you can instantly apply your chosen filter (blur or opacity) to the video, and adjust its intensity to your comfort level.
Key Features

- Blur filter with adjustable intensity
- Opacity filter with adjustable level
- Auto-filter on video detection (optional)
- Support for multiple platforms:
- YouTube
- Netflix
- Amazon Prime Video
- Other video platforms via iframe detection
- Global enable/disable switch
- Persistent settings across browser sessions
Platform-Specific Behavior
Mainstream Platforms (YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus, others coming!)
- Full functionality with keyboard shortcuts working everywhere
- Filter toggles work seamlessly

Other Platforms (iframe detection)
FilterVideo supports iframe-based websites like Alchemiya and other movie-streaming sites.
Important: Due to cross-origin security for iframe-based video streaming, there are some limitations:
- Keyboard shortcut only works when focus is outside the video frame
- To use effectively:
1. Zoom the page if needed (two-finger gesture) but don't toggle full screen
2. Click just outside the video frame to ensure the shortcut works
3. Consider using a shortcut key near your device's mute button for easier control. For example, '-' is close to the mute button on Mac.
Your Experience Matters:
- No data collection
- No external connections
- Everything happens right in your browser
- Your settings stay local
Whether you're browsing videos with family, watching content on your own, or just want more control over what you see - FilterVideo helps you create a more comfortable viewing environment with just one key press.
Usage
1. Click the FilterVideo icon in your browser toolbar
2. Use the toggle switch to enable/disable the extension
3. Choose your preferred shortcut key (default: ',')
4. Adjust filter intensity using the slider
