⏩Play Videos at Faster (or Slower) Speeds on Any Website

In this video I go over a pretty useful tutorial on modifying the video playback speed on nearly any website on the interwebs. The default video player on most websites such as YouTube have very limited playback speed options and are usually limited to 2X speed max and 0.25X speed minimum; and some websites don’t have any options to modify speed at all. A much better and more customizable video player is by using browser extension, and in particular the Google Chrome browser extension that I have been using for a while now and can be downloaded from the following link.

This extension allows for making keyboard shortcuts to increment video playback speed as well as to move forward and backwards in time at set intervals. This extension allows for the video or even just an audio file to be played at playback speeds between 0.07X and 16X which are far outside the range of the default settings. However, if you choose to not use browser extensions or are not able to then another way is to manually modify the source code. One such way is by Right Clicking the webpage, selecting Inspect, and then entering the following line of code in the Console input area:

document.querySelector('video').playbackRate = 3.0;

This manual method works on most websites but not as many as with the extension.

Also in the video I discuss that my earlier recommendation of Hooktube.com no longer has its custom video player so I will no longer be referencing it in my later videos. Furthermore, I briefly discuss another browser extension and this time one that allows to boost audio volume louder than its default setting. This extension can be viewed in the following link:
