Blur stream video behind semi-transparent chat background #8

Open Munzu opened 4 years ago

The chat can be hard to read if the background is (semi-)transparent. I'd love a feature where the chat background blurs the stream video behind the chat.

Something like this?

Yes exactly. I'd like to use something like that in conjunction with a background color.

I did some research and, unfortunately, there is no way to accomplish this on Firefox (backdrop-filter: blur not working with stream as background even when enabling gfx.webrender.all and layout.css.backdrop-filter.enabled). It can be done in Chrome and Brave tho, so let me know if you are willing to switch to any of those browsers and I'll get to it.

That's too bad. I'm okay staying on Firefox. But thank you so much!
