Tweaks for YouTube for Chrome

The Internet does not lack video sharing platforms, but the ever popular one is, undoubtedly, YouTube. Whether you are logged in or not, the interface in YouTube stays the same, providing a standard player, the comments sections, the search results and a few other areas.

Tweaks for YouTube for Chrome is an addon that can offer you extended controls while using YouTube in Google Chrome, making it possible to fast forward and navigate chapters easier, manage the sound level and even turn the playback controller into a minimalist progress bar. In other words, it allows you to customize YouTube as you see fit.

Once installed, Tweaks for YouTube for Chrome adds a new button to the browser’s toolbar, next to the address bar. Clicking on it reveals a menu that grants you additional control over the YouTube player.

You get to control the player or the mini player in YouTube using the mouse, and even jump to the chapter’s start by clicking a mouse button. Other actions allow you to toggle full screen mode and play or pause the video much easier.

And speaking of player controls, there are five different modes available. What is innovative about Tweaks for YouTube is the so-called “Persistent Progress Bar”. Not that you can hide the player controls altogether, but the addon also allows you to conceal various sections of YouTube’s GUI, such as the comment section.

Controlling and tweaking the player is not all that you can do with Tweaks for YouTube in Chrome. It also features video filters, allowing you to adjust the brightness and the contrast levels. What is more, it features extended audio controls, which can completely change the overall experience when using YouTube.

Fast forwarding and jumping to frame, controlling the volume and the sound, modifying the speed and controlling the player using the mouse are just a few things that you can do with Tweaks for YouTube. The addon gives you the freedom to customize your experience on YouTube with a plethora of controls and customization tools. Just install it in Chrome or Firefox and discover it for yourself!
