I want to make the background of my website match the colors of the player like in YouTube but i don't know how. Does anyone have any ideas?

that's something your device does natively for youtube, ugly IMO.. to do it for the web your need to grab the primary thumbnail for the image [like](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2068344/how-do-i-get-a-youtube-video-thumbnail-from-the-youtube-api), then get the average colour of the image [like](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2541481/get-average-color-of-image-via-javascript) then add a css [box-shadow](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box-shadow) on the div with that colour – Lawrence Cherone Dec 03 '22 at 13:09
