Dario D'Aversa (ID: 00000002a0986c74) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/29/2024 Great extension, I wish I had discovered sooner! However I have to report that it's buggy. The keyboard shortcuts often don't work. The Youtube OSD shows it cycles through the regular speeds, and nothing happens. I have to manually go and select it on the bar to make it work. A minor nuisance, but being used to hitting the shortcut keys for years now, I wish this wouldn't happen. Edit: Figured out this issue happenned when I switch keyboard language, and you guys fixed it! It's perfect now.

George George01 (ID: 0000004092b53516) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/20/2024 Лучшее расширение для контроля скорости видео. Всё остальное, что я пробовал, было мусорным калом, с накрученными оценками 10 летней давности. В этом расширении можно выбрать скорость по своему усмотрению, и создавать шаблоны с 1х 2х 3х. Кроме того, оно имеет удобный дизайн, который вписывается в дизайн ютуба.
