Fine-grained YouTube playback speed control with a slider, presets, and keyboard shortcuts — injected natively into the player. Take full control of YouTube's playback speed — without ever leaving the player. YT Playback Speed Controller adds a sleek speed panel directly into YouTube's player bar, styled to match YouTube's own UI. Whether you're speeding through lectures, slowing down tutorials, or finding the perfect pace for a podcast, everything is one click away. FEATURES ▸ Native-style speed panel Opens instantly from the player controls bar — no settings menus, no extra tabs. ▸ Logarithmic slider (0.25x → 16x) Precision where it matters. The slider gives you 4× more control in the everyday 0.25x–2x range while still reaching all the way to 16x for power users. ▸ Fine-tune buttons (±0.05x) Nudge the speed up or down in tiny increments to land on exactly the right pace. ▸ Speed presets One-tap chips for the most common speeds: 0.5, 1.0 (Normal), 1.25, 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0. ▸ Keyboard shortcuts Control speed without touching the mouse: ] or > → Speed up +0.25x [ or < → Slow down −0.25x \ → Reset to 1.0x ▸ On-screen speed indicator A brief overlay appears on the video whenever you use a shortcut, so you always know your current speed at a glance. ▸ Always in sync Listens to YouTube's own ratechange event — stays accurate even if you change speed through YouTube's native menu. ▸ Survives page navigation Re-injects automatically on every YouTube page transition.
