About UltraWideo – Remove Black Bars & Fit Any Video to Your Screen

Stop watching videos with black bars eating half your screen. UltraWideo removes black bars and resizes any video to fill your display — on literally any site that plays video. One click, instant result. Made for EVERY screen — not just ultrawide Ultrawide monitor (21:9, 32:9), a regular 16:9 laptop or TV, or watching old 4:3 uploads? UltraWideo reshapes the video to fit your screen perfectly. No more black bars on the sides. No more black bars on the top and bottom. Just full, edge-to-edge video. Why people switch to UltraWideo Other extensions break on certain sites, stop detecting the video, or wreck the page layout. UltraWideo doesn't. It finds videos automatically — even tiny embeds and players hidden inside other players — and only activates when there's actually a video to fix. No "video not detected." No broken pages. What you get for free ▸ Works on every site — any page that plays video. ▸ Works in fullscreen AND inline. ▸ Automatic video detection — any size, even the smallest embedded players. ▸ Four modes — Normal, Upscale to fill, Stretch to fit, or dial in a Custom zoom. ▸ Scale & pan — fine-tune the zoom and shift the frame to get the exact crop you want. ▸ Gestures — cycle modes and adjust zoom with a scroll, trackpad pinch or touch gestures. ▸ Keyboard shortcuts — fully customizable in your browser's shortcut settings. ▸ Light & dark theme — inherits your system appearance or overrides it with your preference. ▸ Distraction-free — a reduced-motion option tones down animations and keeps things calm. ▸ 40+ languages — UltraWideo speaks your language. ▸ Cross-browser — Chrome, Firefox and every Chromium and Gecko based browser. ▸ 16 accent colors — make the interface yours. ▸ Free forever — the core experience costs nothing. Go further with Pro Support development and unlock the power features: ▸ Per-site settings — each site remembers its own setup. Applied automatically, every time. ▸ Per-video settings — save a unique crop for individual videos and pages. ▸ Letterbox detection — automatically finds and crops black bars baked into the video itself. Works even on protected players with manual Measure. ▸ Ambient light — a WebGL glow that extends the video's colors past the edges of the frame. Like Ambilight, right in your browser. ▸ Enhance quality — real-time adaptive sharpening that scales with resolution. ▸ Cloud sync — your settings follow you across browsers and devices. ▸ Mode manager — hide the modes you never use for faster switching. Trusted by 100,000+ users across Chrome and Firefox stores. Works on any screen size and any aspect ratio. If it doesn't work somewhere, join our official Discord channel and we'll fix it.
