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 love the fact that you can set it faster than x2, sometimes x2 is not enough for youtube videos.
Stopped crashing, which is fantastic. If only it worked on gifs and videos without HTML, but either way, I love this!~
Seems to be fixed now after a recent Chrome update.
It's been so great but having to repair it literally all the time is frustrating. Can this be fixed??????!
I used to love this but now on my new MacBook Air, it gets corrupted quickly and then I have to go back into my extensions and 'repair' I hope it can be fixed.
Most useful chrome extension ever! But why does it automatically become disabled every few weeks, and then I have to go to my extensions and re-enable it? Weird. Great otherwise. Usually works.
Most indispensable extension for Chrome! This extension should be listed first in any list relating to video speed. Thank you, igrigorik!
This add-on has changed my life! I am so grateful. It works beautifully on almost every platform I've tried. You've given me a piece of my life back that FB, YT, and other sites were taking from me by not letting me fast forward videos and ads. YOU ROCK!
Besides adblock this is the best quality of life improvement for chrome i've seen. It works almost everywhere and is very customizable. I've saved hundreds of hours with this program. Besides crashing my computer on some sites around 3.4 speed and others around 4.2 speed I have had no complaints. It seems like a hardware issue on my end so I'm not blaming them.
Love this app, but for some reason chrome keeps disabling it. Does anyone know how to fix this?
