Suggestion: Short videos, Full screen button and convert URL then open in normal YouTube video mode #1819

Open StoopidoMan opened 10 months ago

StoopidoMan commented 10 months ago

PROBLEM:
Some Short videos need to be viewed in full screen, at least for me. so as a workaround I shift+right click and view it in Picture-Picture mode (because sometimes the PIP button doesn't show up) but that is several steps I hope it would be easy to add a full screen button.

⚬ SECOND PROBLEM_:
I often want to open the video in Normal Youtube video mode, so I usually manually convert the url from https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SXHMnicI6Pg to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXHMnicI6Pg if there was just a button.

SOLUTION:
Problem one, adding a full screen button to short videos.

Problem two, adding a button to open the video in normal view mode

ALTERNATIVES:
Nothing

RELEVANCE / SCOPE:

I think everyone will use it, maybe not everyone will use it all the time like me, but I think everyone will use it at some point. and really appreciate it

"SIDE EFFECTS":
me no think so

⚬ _CONTEXT_:

// Thank you!

thank you! @StoopidoMan integrating buttons might require maintenance when youtube changes, while many features themselves don't. thus we should also allow keyboard shortcuts for all our features.

What do you think about this "alternative":

  1. watching all videos on Youtube at 100% of the available height or 100% of the window's height, when hiding the youtube header too (we got that)
  2. forwarding all shorts to the normal player (we will add this, and there are other extensions)

I couldn't find it. What should I search for? And, I know tool tip is coming, but is there a help page or a list of all features with explanation?

Also, I pressed F for full screen it didn't work on youtube shorts (if you assign F to another option it doesn't warn you that F is already assigned to another.)

forwarding all shorts to the normal player (we will add this, and there are other extensions)

Not useful for people like me who likes to scroll down or press down button and procrastinate on Youtube-Shorts (don't judge, me stress)

I agree with integrating a button right on the page = more maintenance. Hence, I think having the ability to add options as buttons in the addon menu would be awesome.

For example: when open in new page in normal player and open in same-page in normal player are available the user could add a button to the addon menu: image

with the abilities: 1) to modify the letter/text/emoji in middle of the button. 2) to add tool tips 3) and right click on the button to assign a shortcut (this should be with all)

thank you for your hard work, hope you consider my suggestions, and me go eat now
