Theater Enhancer for YouTube Extension

- Theater Enhancer for YouTube (T.E.Y.) enhances the main video view by expanding it by more than 50 % when you click on the Theater mode button.

- Additionally, T.E.Y. features two integrated search bars (Bing AI and Google) located in the upper right corner next to the video player.

When you click on the Bing AI Search Bar, it opens a new tab with the Bing AI Copilot (free GPT-4) homepage, where you can get answers to your questions or assistance with any problems.
Meanwhile, the Google search bar functions like any other integrated Google search engine, opening Google search results in a new tab.

These search bars are visible only when the enhanced theater mode is active, while switching back to the default mode is simple: just click the theater mode button in the player or use the “Key T” shortcut

T.E.Y. also significantly enhances the viewing experience for old 4:3 ratio TV format videos on YouTube.

Additionally, it is optimized for Chrome page zoom up to 125% (which you can adjust using the CTRL + and CTRL - shortcuts).
