Video Container Extension This extension allows you to detach videos from web pages into a standalone floating container. It provides zooming features, filter adjustments, opacity control, and convenient customization options for a better viewing experience.
Features Detach videos: Move videos from a webpage into a separate floating container. Zoom: Use mouse wheel, double-click, or pinch-to-zoom gestures (on touch devices) to scale the video. Filter adjustments: Tweak brightness, contrast, saturation, hue, and more. Opacity controls: Adjust video opacity separately from the container background opacity. Container management: Move, resize, and customize the container freely. Selection-based zoom: Press Shift, then click and drag an area to zoom in on that region of the video. Context menu: Right-click inside the container for filters, toggling the interface, and more. Interface toggle: Hide or show the container’s UI from the context menu. Minimal sidebar: When the interface is hidden and container is fully transparent, a thin top line is shown, allowing you to move the container and restore the interface if needed.
