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 have been using this for over 2 years and this is truly the best plugin I have ever used. I can listen to videos at a speed as slow as 0.07x and as fast as 16x. Most people would find around 2x, like in YouTube, comfortable which is fine really. But I usually like to listen at 2.6x or 3x or sometimes even more when videos run slow or maybe just to feel more productive (which, amazingly, I do and that's a lot considering I am a level 10 procrastinator.) Many websites do not provide options to adjust video speed (ahem school sites etc.) but with this extension enabled I can do it without hassle 'cause I just need to press a key on my keyboard to increase/decrease the speed. This extension helped me a lot during my examinations, I could cover topics and lectures at 3 times the normal speed (quite literally) and I wish I could thank the developer personally. Would rate it 11/10 if I could. 10/10 would recommend to use.

Não sei o porquê, mas vem com alguns sites desativados por padrão. Pra removê-los da lista, é só ir nas configs da extensão apagar a lista. Clica com o botão esquerdo na extensão > Settings > Sites on which extension is disabled > Apagar tudo

Unfortunatly it does not work anymore, why? I disabled even all other addons so that video speed gets not influenced by other addons. But still it does not work. It stopped recently first. EDIT: found one that works again: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/video-speed-controller-fo/nkkhljadiejecbgelalchmjncoilpnlk

Love it, but t would be better if we could also have a toggle feature to jump directly to specific parts of the video, like instantly going to 10%, 50%, or 90% on all video players like Vidalytics and Wistia, similar to how you can click on a YouTube video's progress bar to navigate.
