YouTube Force SBS (Raw 3D) by chunky cheese

Watch YouTube 3D videos in raw Side-by-Side (SBS) format on your desktop. This extension disables the default Red/Cyan anaglyph filter, allowing you to view 3D content on 3D monitors like Oddyssey3D, VR headsets, 3D TVs, or via cross-eye viewing. Adds a simple toggle button.

Full Description

Are you trying to watch 3D content on YouTube with a VR headset (like Meta Quest, Vision Pro, or Google Cardboard) but only seeing the old-school Red/Cyan "Anaglyph" mode?

YouTube removed the option to manually select Side-by-Side (SBS) playback on the desktop player, forcing 3D videos to render for colored glasses. This extension restores that functionality.

Features:

One-Click Toggle: Adds a lightweight "SBS" button to the bottom right of the YouTube video player.

Pure Quality: Disables the WebGL Anaglyph filter to reveal the raw, original video upload (typically SBS or Top-Bottom) without color distortion.

VR Ready: Perfect for users streaming their desktop to a VR headset (using Virtual Desktop, Bigscreen, or Immersed) who need the video split for 3D viewing.

Privacy Focused: This extension is strictly local. It performs simple DOM manipulation to unhide the raw video element. No user data is collected or transmitted.
