- The extension isn't doing anything on this site — why?
- The extension requires an HTML5
<video> element on the page. Some streaming sites (older Flash-based players, DRM-protected iframes, or desktop app wrappers like Spotify) don't expose a standard video element. The green dot in the popup will light up when a compatible video is found.
- The video resets to normal after I skip or change quality — how do I prevent this?
- The extension uses a MutationObserver to re-apply transforms when the DOM changes. On some sites the player swaps the
<video> element entirely during quality changes. This is a known limitation. Toggling the mode off and on again will re-apply the transform.
- Will this work on Netflix or Disney+?
- Yes, both sites use standard HTML5 video elements. Note that DRM content may have additional restrictions. If the green dot shows a video is detected, the modes will apply.
- What's the difference between Fill and Auto Force Aspect?
- Fill stretches the video horizontally to match your exact monitor width — it only scales the X axis. Auto Force Aspect reads the video's native ratio first, then calculates the minimum scale needed to fill your monitor without distortion — it may scale X or Y depending on the content.
- Can I configure which modes cycle with Alt+C?
- Yes. At the bottom of the popup, you'll find the "Cycle modes" section. Click any chip to toggle a mode in or out of the cycle. At least two modes must remain active.
- Does this extension collect any of my data?
- No. See the Privacy Policy for full details. Your preferences are stored locally via Chrome's built-in sync storage and never sent to any server.
- The keyboard shortcuts conflict with another extension — can I change them?
- Yes. Open chrome://extensions/shortcuts in your browser and reassign the UltraWide Pro commands to any combination you prefer.
- I found a bug or have a feature request — where do I report it?
- Email russel.sese@batchee.com or reach out via LinkedIn. Include the site URL, your monitor resolution, and which mode was active.
