- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 5612562, 2 months agoGreat though I wish there was an option to add a specific key before the other controls, so for example adding Ctrl before Scrollwheel Up/Down

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18285282, a year agoExcellent implementation of mouse scroll for speed.
- Request new feature: automatic playback dynamic acceleration
Example :
1- set desired speed *e.g. x3
2- select starting speed *e.g. x1.5
3- % of video passed until desired speed is reach e.g. *60%
Result:
The video begins at x1.5
increases gradually as a function of time based on the duration of the video
by 60%, speed had gradually increased from 1.5x to 3x in 0.01 stepsizes.
e.g. at 60% of elapsed video duration it will be
playbackRate = x1.5 + (x3 - x1.5) * (currentTime / duration) / 0.6
This formula means that the playback rate will start at x1.5 and increase linearly as a function of the current time divided by the duration of the video until it reaches 60% of the duration, where it will reach x3.
This passive increase in cognitive load will lead to increased comprehension.Developer response
posted a year agoHi. Thank you for your five-star review and the suggestion of automatic playback dynamic acceleration. This functionality, to adjust playback speed from a starting rate to a desired rate over a specific portion of the video, stands out in the plugin market I would say, and I am excited about exploring its development!! Recognizing the challenges in UI design and technical implementation, I've noted this feature for future consideration in my development plans. By leveraging video duration metrics, I aim to refine user interaction and comprehension through this adaptive speed control. Thank you once again for your valuable input; it's fuel for my passion to develop solutions that make a difference. - Rated 5 out of 5by Chan Lim, a year agoDoes the job for me so no complain. But one suggestion If it's possible, Can we add our own custom key?

posted a year agoHi there, I’m the developer. First off, a huge thanks for the 5-star rating – it means a lot! 😊 Your suggestion about adding a custom key feature is really awesome. I've actually been thinking about something similar. The tricky part is YouTube's default key settings; using custom keys might create some conflicts. I'm pondering whether to override these default keys or find a different workaround like notifying or alert. But no worries, I'm on it! I've noted down your suggestion and I'll definitely look into coding this feature when I get some free time. Greetings
