Theatre Vision
Theatre mode for any web video without fullscreen
Theatre Vision makes web videos fill your browser window without fullscreen, keeping the site's native player controls, volume, and captions intact. Key Features: 1. Windowed theatre mode for HTML5 & iframe players 2. Native Controls & Captions: Keeps original site controls, quality toggles, and subtitle overlays intact. 3. Whitelist or blacklist domains and subdomains 4. Privacy First: Runs completely offline in your browser with zero telemetry or tracking. 5. Free and open source (MIT)
Here's the problem that annoyed me every day: so many video platforms, course sites, and media players don't have a built-in theatre mode. You're left with two frustrating options:
1. Squint at a tiny 640px player surrounded by clutter, or
2. Go full screen, which takes over your entire monitor, hides your browser tabs, kills your multitasking, and breaks your workflow.
P.S. I'm a Senior Software Engineer and builder currently exploring new senior engineering roles. If you're building something exciting, let's connect on LinkedIn:
I would love to hear your feedback, site suggestions, or any quirks you encounter!

Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Shikhar, the creator of Theatre Vision.
Here's the problem that annoyed me every day: so many video platforms, course sites, and media players don't have a built-in theatre mode. You're left with two frustrating options:
1. Squint at a tiny 640px player surrounded by clutter, or
2. Go full screen, which takes over your entire monitor, hides your browser tabs, kills your multitasking, and breaks your workflow.
I built Theatre Vision to solve this cleanly.
