YouTube video player too small in chrome browser

[adisulistiyanto]

The YouTube video player is too small in the chrome browser (see image) and the size cannot be adjusted.

Would be fantastic to see a fix for this enabling a larger video size when studying.

I wonder if the LingQ team can offer ay update on resolving the above issue? It makes sentence view pretty much unusable for viewing youtube comfortably. I am making do with a tampermokey script for now thankfully provided by the community.

At the moment it’s not possible to adjust the size. We will see what we can do in the future updates.

[UPDATED] Extension for Better LingQ Reader Layout (For Video/Audio Lessons)

Patch Note 1.3: Article is displayed in a single page. 1.4: Now the sentence playing is located at the center of the screen. You don’t need to scrol acording to the playing video. 1.5: Provide new hotkeys: Move the cursor to the reference input (`), Open Dictionary (d or f), Open Translator (t), and Copy selected text (c) 1.6: Now, LingQ uses “youtube.com” player, not “youtube-nocookie.com 1”. Some code is updated for that change. 2.3 Provide three layout optionss: Video, Video(wide), Audi…

Thanks for the update Zoran. And thanks also vet for the feedback. I had tried this however I prefer to use sentence mode so I can replay the audio from each sentence easily which I don’t believe is possible here? I am using the script thankfully provided here [Larger videos on desktop displays via Tampermonkey]

I’ll update the resize feature for the sentence mode soon.

Try version 3.5. I added the video-size option for the sentence view mode!

[nicholasc1]

Hey thanks! However, sentence view uses a different video player than the general player (pressing the YouTube button in the bottom left). when you press the sentence audio shortcut (a), a new player loads which is the incorrect size.

Try v3.6.1

I fixed that issue.

Thanks that works great! Note for my own preference I have edited slightly by shrinking the video player width to 50% which seems to work better for me. I have also set the default captions in player to off. Thanks Again.

paste the script below in your browser console:
var element1 = document.querySelector(‘.reader-container.has-text-dark.is-relative’);

element1.style.float= “right”

var element2 = document.querySelector(‘.modal.modls.hide-default-close.video-player.is-minimized.is-active’);

element2.classList.remove(‘is-minimized’);

var element3 = document.querySelector(‘.modal.modls.hide-default-close.video-player.is-active’);

element3.style.right = “1200px”;

element3.style.bottom = “250px”;

var element4 = document.querySelector(‘.modal-content.box.is-paddingless.is-medium’);

element4.style.maxWidth=“1900px”

var element5 = document.querySelector(‘.video-wrapper’);

element5.style.height=“900px”
