Extension summary

Simply handle playback speed while watching videos. Video Speed Controller allows you to speed up or slow down any video during the watching. No standards or limits. Just increase and decrease the playback speed, as many times as you need.

Some websites such as YouTube and Facebook don't allow you to change the speed of your videos. Nowadays, nobody has time to watch 20-30 minute long videos. Especially now with Facebook Video Ads, watching content online can get quite frustrating.

Thankfully, Video Speed Controller lets you speed up or slow down videos quickly and easily. Whether you want to watch videos in 0.5x, 1.5x, 2x or 3x speed, this extension lets you use hotkeys to adjust the speed of your videos as you enjoy your videos.

Upon installing the extension, you can navigate to any page that offers HTML5 video, and you'll see a speed indicator in the top left corner of the player. Hover over the indicator to reveal controls that enable you to customize youtube video playback rate and customize youtube audio playback rate. You can accelerate, slowdown, or rewind the video with just one click or use your keyboard shortcuts:

  • 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.
