Good idea. Frustrating having to reset the speed after every new video or after pausing an existing video. Also, inability to use it in fullscreen doesn't help either. Four stars because it still is great for longer videos that I do not need to stop and take notes

Works on Udemy. It has presets 3.5 and 4 but you can type any speed you want in the input box. You control it on the button next to the url space area. It does reset every new video. Hope that can get fixed. And wish we could set our favorite speed as a button on our tool.
