YouTube Full Screen Enhancer

This script enhances the user experience when pausing a YouTube video in full-screen mode by hiding certain elements and adding a play icon.

Features

  • Hide Video Title: The video title is hidden when the video is paused in full-screen mode.

  • Hide Player Control Bar: The player control bar is hidden when the video is paused in full-screen mode.

  • Stabilize Captions: Prevents captions text from jumping up and down when you pause or resume the video using the spacebar or "K" key.

  • Add Play Icon: A play icon is added at the bottom right corner of the video when paused.

Screenshot

The first screenshot displays the enhanced full-screen mode with hidden interface elements, including the video title and player control bar. Additionally, an overlay of a play icon is added when the video is paused. In contrast, the second screenshot shows the default full-screen mode without the enhancements enabled.

  • With Enhancements Enabled Enable

  • Default (Without Enhancements) Disable

The source of the video captured in the screenshots is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFcOuJmgTno
