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.

So great. I use it to watch technical talks faster. Downside: I'll never recognize the voices of the speakers I watch :).. But I can live with that.

Great tool, very simple and easy to use. But why does rewinding with the A key also decrease the viewing speed?

Kept default keys. First attempt at using, A slowed down the playback isntead of rewinding. Restarted Chrome, A started both rewinding and slowing down. Also does not work in full screen.

Works great with Plex. Just adjust the speed in windowed playback before you go to fullscreen.

Отлично! запоминает настройки скорости - становятся дефолтными для последующих, можно регулировать кликом мышки скорость, перемотать назад. В общем в аккурат то, чего мне не хватало в других расширениях для youtube!
