Video Play Speed

Easily change the playback speed of videos in your browser: right-click a video, click Video Play Speed, and then choose your speed.

The Video Play Speed extension enables users to quickly adjust the playback speed of HTML5 videos in their browser with just three clicks. By right-clicking on any compatible video, selecting the Video Play Speed option, and choosing the desired speed, users can speed up or slow down their viewing experience on most websites, enhancing flexibility and control.

Note that YouTube™ videos are not supported since YouTube™ natively offers playback speed options. Flash videos are also unsupported. The extension's source code is accessible on GitHub, promoting transparency and customization.

I really needed this to work. But right-clicking on an Amazon Prime movie in Chrome just stopped or started the movie. No speed options anywhere.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Video Play Speed requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Video Play Speed has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
