Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

When you pause a YouTube video, the player controls don't disappear. That makes it really hard to take a clean screenshot of the video. The controls also block your view, which can get really annoying. Hyde is a simple Chrome extension that allows you to hide or show the video player controls easily.

⭐ Simply use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+M to hide the controls or show them again. ⭐

Helpful! But there's some error. WHen I',m trying to return to "show status bar" pressimg ctrl+M, It doesn't show the red colored progress bar according to progress. I think it is the only defect and other part is perfect.
