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.

Great, but the controller shows up in the middle of the screen when used on hulu.com

Para mim está funcionando muito bem. Única ressalva é que após passar o anúncio de algum vídeo a velocidade volta ao normal, sempre tendo que mudar novamente.

I use this extension every day of my life and it works great! I can't imagine an internet experience without it, it's a must-have. The only improvement that could be made is speeding up youtube subtitles to match video speed, as currently using this extension on youtube will cause subtitles to be out of sync. It's a great extension!
