Video Speed Controller (Magnus Fork)
Video Speed Controller (Magnus Fork) is a Chrome extension developed by todamath. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This free extension is a fork of the popular chromium extension and offers enhanced control over HTML5 audio and video playback.
With Video Speed Controller (Magnus Fork), users can easily adjust the speed of any HTML5 video on various platforms such as YouTube, Netflix, Reddit, Twitter, and more. Unlike the speed controls provided by these websites, this extension provides users with greater precision and flexibility.
One notable feature of this fork is the inclusion of mouse-scrolling to change the playback speed. By holding shift and using the scroll wheel, users can easily increase or decrease the speed of the video. Additionally, this fork introduces a modern dark theme to the settings UI, enhancing the overall user experience.
It is important to note that due to the extensive rewriting and breaking changes made to the original extension, there may be compatibility issues between versions. Users may need to completely reinstall the extension with each update to ensure optimal functionality. However, this approach allows for quicker and more accurate iterations by the developer.
