Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

HTML5 video provides native APIs to accelerate playback of any video, but most implemented players either hide or limit this functionality. This extension fixes that, plus more...

It will help you optimize your video viewing by allowing you to make quick playback speed adjustments, as well as rewind the video to hear the last few second one more time. We don't read at a constant speed, and we talk much slower than we read - there is no reason why we have to listen at a constant speed and at a (very) slow rate.

Once the extension is installed simply navigate to any page that offers HTML5 video, and you'll see a speed indicator in top left corner of the video player. Hover over the indicator to reveal the controls to accelerate, slowdown, or rewind the video (10 seconds + lowers playback speed). Or, even better, use your keyboard:

- S - decrease playback speed.

- D - increase playback speed.

- R - reset playback speed.

I cannot do my job without this extension. What I miss is a Seek Bar that is display only, letting me know current video progress on the Cached Video. My job requires me to watch livestream video fastest possible. I meet this problem right now: When I speed up livestreams, I will eventually reach the latest progress of the livestream. However the livestream progress slows down without showing any obvious sign that it is slowing down. I have to speed up from time to time (like speed up to 1.10 for 5 sec to catch up then go back to 1.00). My problem is that I don't know my current position versus what the browser has cached so far. => I really need a Seek Bar (display only, updating once per 100ms) to show my current video progress on the cached / downloaded video so far. Thus I will surely know when I'm falling behind to manually speed up, instead of randomly speedup now or then like currently doing. So is a Seek Bar that is display only, updating once per 100ms feasible?

I have really enjoyed this extension ever since my freshman year of college. It has save so many hours of watching boring movies. As of late, it has been disappearing and i have to come back to this website and delete and re-download?? thats the only reason it is 4 not 5 stars but i love it . Anyone else have this issue / know how to circumvent it?

Honestly, this extension is one of the most helpful I've ever used. I recommend it to everyone who wants to speed up or slow down videos to see better or just have fun. It even makes it more precise when you increase or decrease the speed, with 0.05, and also, it works on multiple sites, not only YouTube! Thanks for this invention!
