Excellent extension it does exactly what it says. I set up D as the shortcut because is next to F (which is used for full screen), also because J K and L are taken for rewind pause/play and forward. I love using keyboard shortcuts and this is great. The main reason I installed it is because sometimes (especially during tutorials) important information is unreadable behind the progress bar and controls when you pause the video and there was no way to hide it. This extensions solves that problem. Great Job!!!

it is an indispensable extension for youtube to be able to pause the video without the controls that makes it the best of all extensions, many thanks to the creator.

This is a godsend. Thank you for making this! Note: re-open or hard refresh (ctrl+F5) YouTube after adding the extension.

In my case on Microsoft Edge i just move cursor to the edge of screen while in full screen mode and bar disappears. Just what i needed.

In Vivaldi, it works using a hotkey, but not by moving cursor to screen edge (fullscreen video). Make sure the hotkey you choose is not already being used: Vivaldi Setup-->Keyboard.
