Video Speed Controller+

About

Speed up, slow down, advance and rewind HTML5 audio/video with shortcuts

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. 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. 

- Works on any site with HTML5 media: YouTube, Netflix, local files, etc, including audio.
- Fine-grained speed controls and defaults - 0.07x to 16x in configurable increments.
- Fully customizable shortcuts: remap every key, add modifier combos, custom speed toggles.
- Configurable per-site speed rules - set a default playback speed for specific domains.
- Option to persist your last speed across sessions and tabs.
- Reposition the on-video speed indicator anywhere you like.

Hover over the speed 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.
- Z - rewind video by 10 seconds.
- X - advance video by 10 seconds.
- V - show/hide controller.

If you prefer other shortcuts, want to change the increment value, or want the player to remember your playback speed in the future, head into the settings page and customize it to your heart's content.



Video Speed Controller+ is an independent fork of the open-source Video Speed Controller project by Ilya Grigorik. It is built from that original MIT-licensed codebase, with additional controls such as an inline speed slider and a quick 1x reset button.
