Turn Off the Lights for Microsoft Edge Description
One characteristic shared by most video hosting websites is that they feature bright backgrounds and display content around the player window that is designed to grab your attention for one reason or another.
Turn Off the Lights for Microsoft Edge is a nifty extension that can greatly enhance your viewing experience by dimming everything around the video player and getting rid of unnecessary distractions.
Dim web pages with a single mouse click
Once installed, the add-on becomes accessible from the Extensions panel, and you have the option of adding a helpful button next to the address bar, thus making it easy to dim the current web page at any time.
Turn Off the Lights for Microsoft Edge supports pretty much every popular video hosting website out there, including YouTube, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Metacafe and Hulu. It detects the player window and adjusts to any size modifications automatically, so users who prefer to keep things simple need not perform any advanced configurations.
Highly customizable Microsoft Edge extension
While there is nothing stopping you from ignoring the extension’s more advanced features and using it in its default state, we highly recommend that you at least take a look at the optional functions and personalization options.
For instance, it is possible to have the extension dim the background automatically when you play a video, alter the YouTube player size and video quality, as well as display a dimness level bar when the screen is faded.
Additionally, you can apply various types of visual effects, set up convenient hotkeys, whitelist or blacklist certain pages and enable area selection in order to focus on certain areas when the lights have been turned off.
Furthermore, the extension comes with a useful Night Mode function that allows you to darken the current web page so as to make it easier on the eyes in low-light conditions.
Watch online videos without distractions and improve your viewing experience
There are plenty of reasons to recommend Turn Off the Lights for Microsoft Edge to any user who finds video hosting websites to be too bright or distracting. It makes it remarkably simple to dim the rest of the page and enjoy your videos, while also offering an impressive array of optional features and customization options.
Those who do not rely solely on Microsoft Edge may also wish to take a look at the similar extensions that are available for browsers such as Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera.
