en Clunky and only seems to work on some videos, at least on Mac. Lack of feedback when it does work is frustrating and a shame it doesn't integrate with the youtube interface.

en It works! Simply press ctrl-` and viola 3x speed. While I won't fault the developer of this extension for the UX, I kinda wish it also added a 3x to playback speed in the the youtube player gear icon popup menu.
