A nice feature on Youtube is the ability play the videos a little wider, specially with all the HD videos out there. I also don’t really like to view them fullscreen all the time.

This feature I really missed on Vimeo. With more HD videos this view is just a shame for the quality :)

So finally we wrote a very small Google Chrome extension so we could give all those nice videos on Vimeo a proper view.

You can download it from the Google Chrome extention library or fork it on Github.

Next step is to port it to a Firefox and Safari extension. This shouldn’t be much of a problem since it is just pure css.
