Installing Extensions

YTheatre runs using electron, so most extensions made for Chrome/Chromium should be supported. The difference is how they are loaded.

Extensions are loaded using an "unpacked" method, which means that you'll need to find an uncompiled version of the extension you would like. You can normally find these in the extensions source code or through a release for the extension on Github labeled "Chrome" or "Chromium" as a ZIP. If you need a way to find out if your extension is unpacked or not, it should contain manifest.json file in its root directory.

You will want to copy this extension to /Documents/YTheatre/extensions. If the directory doesn't exist, you may have not opened YTheatre yet.

You also want to make sure that the extension isn't inside a subfolder of the extension directory. This can happen on accident by extracting the extension from a ZIP file, which can commonly create a subfolder with the same name.

Display Settings

You can change the default display settings by editing the config.ini file in the YTheatre directory in your documents folder. The default settings are:

• startInFullScreen: false
  • Whether or not to start YTheatre in full screen mode
• preferedDisplay: 1
  • The display to start on. This should be a number equal to the number of the display in the list of displays in your operating system.
• defaultWidth: 1920
  • The default width of the window. This is the width that the window will be if it isn't full screen.
• defaultHeight: 1080
  • The default height of the window. This is the height that the window will be if it isn't full screen.
• insetTitleBar: true
  • Whether or not the title bar is overlayed on top of the window, or if it uses the native Windows title bar (which is bulkier and less good looking).
