What is Video Speed Controller Experimental?
Video Speed Controller Experimental is a Chrome extension that functions as a testing platform for new features and changes for the parent project, Video Speed Controller.

The extension may be unstable at times due to its experimental nature. It's not a separate version of the parent project but a playground for feature testing.

Extension summary

This repository houses experimental features which may or may not make it in to the parent project Video Speed Controller.

The purpose of this is to have a place for testing features, ideas, or any change at all in order to get feedback on how the change is working before merging it into the larger parent project. This allows us a controlled way of experimenting without alienating the users who depend on the reliability of this tool.

At any given time this version may be in a broken state, and the reliability is not guaranteed. This is why it is called experimental. If you want the version which is stable and strives to work well for all users all the time, please get Video Speed Controller.

I think I may have made the point clear, but I do think it bears repeating. The goal of this effort is not to fork the parent project and create a "better" version of it, but rather to have a playground for testing out ideas with the expectation of either removing it all together or adding it into the parent project.

Relieved to find out the extension lives on for longer and didn't vanish from the face of this browser. This extension offers the flexibility to bind your own key without the dependency of ctrl or shift or anything like that. I could not for the life of me find another extension that offers the exact flexiblity of key-rebinding a video controller offers when I needed to find it.
