Extension summary

Speedy is a video playback speed modifier! Fast-forward or slow down any HTML5 video element by accessing the extension's menu.

HTML5 video elements on many websites hide the option to adjust the playback speed on a video. With Speedy, you can adjust the speed to one you find suitable or just fast-forward parts you want to skip.

To use Speedy, simply open the extension and adjust the slider to your preferred speed. The left and right arrow icons in the extension will increase or decrease the speed. Once you would like to return to your regular speed, simply click the square icon to immediately set it back to normal.

To adjust your preferred minimum and maximum speed or the step size, click the speedometer in the top right corner. Make sure to apply your settings before exiting!

Brilliant extension! Works great and the hotkeys are a great touch, especially the "max speed" option =)

Incredibly useful! Had to make it through a training course where I'm familiar with 90% of the material. VIdeos were hours long and needed to watch the whole thing. This extension was EXACTLY what I needed. Clean, simple interface and does exactly what it says it does!
