Video Ambient Light is a free browser extension that turns video colors into a soft, adjustable glow around the player.

Video Ambient Light brings a little more of the video into your browser. This free Chrome and Firefox extension picks up colors from each scene and spreads them across the surrounding page, adding a changing glow to YouTube videos, livestreams, Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Facebook Reels. Keep the background gentle for a quiet travel vlog or make it more colorful for a live concert with adjustable brightness, softness, saturation, and spread. You can enable the effect separately for each platform, while your video and playback controls stay unchanged. Everything runs locally, with no account or video uploads needed.
