Turn Off the Lights is a browser extension developed by Stefan Van Damme that lets users dim everything on their screen except the video they are watching. A gray lamp icon is displayed in the browser menu bar when a video is detected; users click on the icon to make the screen surrounding the video fade. Clicking outside the video restores the rest of the screen. Users can adjust the opacity of the screen blocking and select a color other than black if desired. The extension can also be set to dim the screen automatically, and there are a variety of YouTube-specific features as well to bring an object to the front. A keyboard shortcut gives users quick access to the program's services.

How does it work?

With a single click on the + icon on the toolbar, you will see a popup window show up. In this Proper Menubar popup window, you can enable or disable the bar on the current web page. Try it yourself on the example on the left-hand side.

How do I add the bar?

From this Proper Menubar popup window, you can show or hide the bar on all websites. If you see a red button, that means the bar is not visible. But when you press on this button it becomes green and will it add the bar on all websites.

Try it yourself!

Great job!

It's so simple as that. Share this Proper Menubar browser extension with your friends and family.
