Chrome playback speed controller

Controls the playback speed of your youtube or udemy video
Download Install Compare

The Chrome Playback Speed Controller extension allows users to easily control the playback speed of videos on YouTube and Udemy. When a supported video is detected, the extension icon activates, and clicking it opens a pop-up featuring a slider, a numeric display, and a reset button. Users can precisely control the speed from 0.0 to 15.9, either by adjusting the slider or entering a specific speed value, with a precision of up to one decimal place. The reset button conveniently restores the playback speed to normal (1.0). This tool is ideal for learners and viewers who want to customize video consumption speed to their preference.

Huge help for Udemy playback speed. Would be nice if there were keyboard shortcuts to increase/decrease the speed.
