QuadTV per Jim Schindler

Transform your YouTube TV experience with QuadTV - the ultimate multi-stream viewing extension for sports fans and news junkies.

New in release v1.0.0!

Audio focus is here. One stream has sound and the rest stay muted, so four games no longer talk over each other. Click a stream's number badge, press 1-4, or use the arrow keys to move the sound. Alt+M mutes everything. If you've clicked inside a stream, hold Alt (Option on Mac) with the same keys.

New
- Audio focus: badge click, 1-4, arrow keys, Alt+M
- Layout bar at the top edge of the grid: switch layouts, see which stream has sound, open help, or exit without the popup
- Press L to cycle layouts (Ctrl/Cmd+Space still works)
- Switching back to a bigger layout is instant, and hidden streams return on the channel they were on

Fixed
- Changing layout from the popup while QuadTV was active did nothing
- The 1+2 layout's large stream now fills the left column
- Streams hidden by a smaller layout no longer keep playing audio
- Custom divider positions now apply when switching layouts
- Alt+M works on macOS
