Speed Sail - Playback Speed Controls Extension

Speed Sail gives you the power to change the speed of videos and audio clips in your current tab! From slowing down videos or audio to help with learning a new language, to speeding up lectures to save time, Speed Sail has many uses to make your life easier!

-Whats new:
-Update 1.1.0 is here!
-When opening the extension pop up the slider will now be set to the last speed you applied. This makes it easier to quickly re-apply a speed selection if it was lost by the page being refreshed or an ad being shown over the video.
-Now values on the slider from 0.25 to 2 are incremented by 0.25, while values from 2 to 16 are incremented by 1. This makes the slider less cluttered with values and makes it easier to pick the value you want without skipping over it.

-Default speed button to quickly switch back to 1x speed.
