- Rated 4 out of 5by Ashley, 7 years agoI tried this extension on Firefox for Android. It only works for a few common websites like YouTube. For the other websites, it doesn't work - the controller is clickable. Meanwhile, the extension for PC works well for all websites.
- Rated 4 out of 5by Halc, 7 years agoVery good, works as advertised. It's just that even with a modern 6-core 4.5Ghz CPU and 32GB of RAM, the sound quality in speed-up is really bad (much worse than Enounce Myspeed or many Chrome extensions doing video speed up).
If the author would improve the sound quality (give a selection for low-cpu-impact/bad quality and higher-cpu-demand/super-quality audio algo), then it would be perfect 5 stars.Developer response
posted 7 years agoUnfortunately this is a Firefox issue with not enough priority.
We should bring more attention to this bug.

- Rated 4 out of 5by sundar, 7 years agoSimple and unobtrusive, does the job. Needs more customizations though:
1. Option to disable keyboard shortcuts altogether. I don't need these HTML5 video features often enough to warrant assigning shortcuts to them. Also, I use extensions like VimFx or Saka Keys, and it's messy and unnecessary to have two sets of shortcuts like that.
2. Option to customize what buttons we have in the controller. I rarely need the advance/rewind buttons (which crash Netflix video playing, btw), and I need a 'reset to 1.0' button in the controller very much. Being able to customize these would be great.
3. Minor one, but an option to customize which corner of the video the controller appears in. As of now, top-left is the default, but being able to customize that would be great. - Rated 4 out of 5by Matt.Greg, 7 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 6004793, 8 years agoReally useful too, though on some sites, a couple of the keystrokes call up other screens.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Gtbs, 8 years agoI love having the ability to set my own speeds when watching videos, thanks for that.
My only issue is that when you're in the online Amazon Video player, the speed panel (usually accessible by hovering over the current video speed in the top left) is inaccessible, because that's where Amazon puts their hovering X-Ray info panel.
The ability to move the panel anywhere else on the screen would come in useful to avoid this! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13096582, 8 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Ataraxy, 8 years agoPlease add a way to pause (speed=0) as well as resume last speed.
While it's not about speed, having keys for +/- volume would be a really handy for complete video control from the keyboard.
Thanks for a really useful plugin! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 12982198, 8 years ago
