[Feature Request] Theater Mode like Twitch. #668

Open Bubulae opened 2 weeks ago

Bubulae commented 2 weeks ago

I think its been months since youtube streaming change to match up with twitch, where the the live chat will show on the right side when on theater mode.

But the screen still not as good as twitch, because on twitch the screen "fit" perfectly and looks clean, while on youtube it doenst fit.

Would be nice if the screen on theater mode (feature) can bit fit just like how theater mode on twitch.

Thanks for reading this..

@Bubulae Thank you for suggesting this feature. I think it should be possible can you provide more details on how you think this could be implemented to fit your needs.

I compared YouTube and Twitch's theater mode on live videos and what I gather is that you'd like the video and the chat to fill the height of the window like it does on Twitch. Correct me if I am wrong.

Thank you for replying. Sorry if my suggestion not really specific, but what I meant by that, you can see the different between Youtube vs Twitch Theater mode.

As you can see, twitch did it better because the the theater mode "fit" the screen entirely. So it looks cleans if I want to watch the stream with livechat on. And it even better if I go full screen (F11),

Youtube the other hand, the video not entirely "fit" the screen. We still can see the stream title, like/dislike, desc, vid rec, etc below it.. Not so clean especially if we plan to watch this on full screen (F11) with livechat on.

Would be great if this extension have that option where to make the video screen fit the screen so give the clean look with livechat while watching streaming.

Thanks for reading this..

Thank you for clarifying. I will look into implementing this feature. No estimate on when it will be released. When the feature is added I'll upload the extension for loading in unpacked form as a temporary solution.
