FiveLoop

Control your Videos with a Bluetooth Foot-Switch! Set Loops, Adjust the Speed, Pitch-Shift, Play/Pause and Forward/Rewind.

FiveLoop is a handy Chrome extension designed for anyone learning through online video tutorials, especially musicians. It allows you to set loops to repeat specific parts of a video, adjust playback speed in 5% increments, transpose audio pitches by halftones, and control play, pause, forward, and rewind actions.

Control is easy using a Bluetooth foot-switch or keyboard shortcuts, making it perfect for hands-free video navigation while practicing instruments like guitar. FiveLoop respects your privacy by only storing control mappings locally, without collecting any personal data. For support or feature requests, users can contact the developer directly.

FiveLoop is praised for its usefulness, especially as a guitar practice tool, and overall good functionality. However, multiple users express dissatisfaction due to the absence of the advertised pitch shifting feature and a lack of information on the developer's website. Additionally, the absence of a German language option is noted as a drawback.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

FiveLoop requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

FiveLoop is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
