Extension Usage Instructions

                        NEW - This extension now automatically fast-forwards and skips YouTube ads for you. No more ads!

--
Fastest and most intuitive speed control for YouTube.

No more fiddling with menus. No need to hunt down hotkeys. Just click and hold anywhere on the video. Drag left or right to choose different speeds. Anywhere from 0.1x to 16x

Very helpful for skimming boring sections of videos, or selecting a custom speed to watch a video at.

--

HOW TO USE:

Click and hold anywhere on a video to play at 2x speed. Release the click to resume regular speed.

Drag the click to the right for faster speeds like 3x or 5x.

Drag to the left for slower speeds like 1.5x or 0.5x.

Drag all the way left to rewind.

Pick which speeds you want in the settings.

All speeds will revert back to normal speed when you release the click, UNLESS you drag the mouse vertically before releasing. If you do, the new speed will remain (the indicator will become bold to indicate that you've set the new speed to be persistent).
