Reviews of video speed manager:
Really a great and useful tool. Amazing shortcuts and works really well
Amazong overall but bug with prime video where the 1.00 UI shows up 10 times
great!!
working fine
Great plugin, I have only one problem with it, lack of possibility to move the widget around. It's build to show in upper left corner which sometimes makes it unusable on beginning of YT videos that have popup "includes a paid promotion", speed controller and that popup are overlapping unfortunately. If there was an option to change position in settings it would be 5/5.
Extension compromised, Adware & Browser search Hijacker
first i liked it but now its not working
Hello John, I like your extension. Works better than others on the store. However, when I set a desired speed and then toggle full screen mode, the speed sets to default value (1.0) which is a bit annoying. Is it possible to fix it? I use Windows 10 and latest Google Chrome version. Cheers, Vladislav
great extension, but why does the speed indicator move to the middle of the screen when watching netflix?
Love almost all speed extensions
Used to work perfectly and recently after a MAC update I cannot play Prime Video or ABC.com videos if this extension is enabled in Chrome. I also see it's not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing and I see a reviewer wrote that it has malware. :(
Doesn't speed up with the hotkey "D"
What is "not trusted by Enhanced Safe Browsing"? Btw Expect Full screen keyboard shortcut.
Yay! finally one without the usual bugs
Fantastic!
good.actually i used on chrome before. just ..the controler on chrome can move places but seems this one was meant to fixed.
Includes Adware & Browser Hijacker Injection Code, DO NOT DOWNLOAD! Scan your PC with Malwarebytes after removing this...
This is the best one of these I have found so far
This extension is simply great.
Every feature you need - jump forwards and backwards, speed up/down, but most importantly, ideal speed button that you can set up to 16. Best of all, every aspect is customisable.
This is amazing!! You should add a screenshot about your page. I didn't know I can customize hotkeys until I saw it. More people will download it, if you show that page. Great job.
REALLY LOVED IT.HELPED ME A LOT........................... THANK YOU JOHN DAVIS FOR THIS WONDERFUL EXTENSION
Why am I constantly getting a message from my Malwarebytes that this program has an adware hijacker?! Every time I scan I picks up this program and quarantines it. What are you playing at?

Uses and redirects to YAHOO the most hated search ever not going to use this extension
Have been using it for a year already, works perfectly. For those who say it isn't working - you should not be clicking anything to speed up the videos. Just use the S and D keys and it will speed up/slow down ANY AND EVERYTHING (D = faster, S = slower).
It work for most of the sites. But not working in https://unacademy.com/lesson/di-based-on-two-theatres-and-their-footfall-part-1/GDXUK1EV which I want to work in.
No reason to give this any less than 5 stars
awesome!!! love using it to speed up stuff on facebook
Great extension
i have used this extension for a couple of weeks now, and it works perfectly, the thing is that it brought a problem to my computer that redirected all my searches to yahoo it is called coolnewtabtheme, the extension works fine but i couldnt use google chrome because it redirected all my searches to yahoo, so i had to uninstall the app and other measures, but the problem kept coming back so i digged deeper and found in a forum that extensions might bring this problem so i tested it and discovered this extension was the malicious one that brought me this virus. strongly recommend not to download it, please i dont want anyone elses computer to be harmed by this extension.
Good until it had a virus, redirects to YAHOO. Like YAHOOOOO!!!!! Poo Poo. Uninstall to fix. :)
Virus
Poisoned my search bar with an ad redirect. I couldn't search with my browser without it sending me to an ad server. Thankfully I had DNS level blocking on my network so it never recieved anything back, but it rendered my browser unusable. I removed the extension and it fixed the issue. This is so scummy, I can't even imagine dropping to a low like this.
It gave me a virus that went away as soon as I uninstalled it
Damage Chrome, install yahoo search and it’s impossible to uninstall and make chrome shut down on its own
Avoid!!! It hijacked my browser via coolnewtabtheme site and sends all searches to Yahoo. I tried to report abuse when I uninstalled, but it sent me to an error page. I installed again briefly to post here.
had to add this again to tell you that i think this is malware, specifically a hijacker, malwarebytes found malware in the files for this extension, the id's start of exactly the same. removing and gonna go with the original on this one.
had a malware that directed me to yahoo for some reason when I search something where my default search engine is google, upon uninstalling the extension everything went back to normal.. watch out :/
The Best
not working! can't hover over the number
This extension is working on chrome but on microsoft edge it is not working
Use frequently and works well. Can we get a Whitelist option? Instead of having this run on every site, I just use it on video heavy sites -- Netflix, Amazon, etc. For now the extension is set to only work if I click on it and reload the site first, which works okay.
It's been a god send for practicing drumming. Thanks
Facebook web page refresh and show "Sorry, we're having trouble playing this video."
With all the training videos I have to watch, I can't live without this extension. Works great.
best
Use it also on Firefox (at lease it works exactly the same) Only one think I would is add a white outline to the controls since if the background is dark you don't see them at all
One of my favourite extensions, has helped me and my short attention span get through so many things in 1.5/ double/ triple speed, saving me so much time. I don't know if this is a big, a change in the extension, or a change in youtube, but since a week ago videos revert to X1 speed when I enter or exit full screen now.
Great! Works on netflix! which is just what I wanted. Thanks
total ripoff from Video Speed Controller (Original) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/video-speed-controller/nffaoalbilbmmfgbnbgppjihopabppdk the source code : https://github.com/igrigorik/videospeed
Cannot be used by developers! The app creates a JavaScript console error that completely occludes the usage of WebWorkers for PWA's!!!!
Works great (tested on Facebook and Youtube, including full screen). Thanks for this great extension!
Finally :D Updated and works perfectly :D
It is a good extension but cause some bug in browser developer panel. Failed to load resource: net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT
Really useful and easy to use! It saves me a lot of time. When there have been problems in the past, the creator was quick to fix them. Really good extension!
Used to be great but now causes all fonts on webpages to display incorrectly
Was working great until the 10/22 update. Now it's injecting styles into all of my pages and doing some weird things with fonts and font sizing. It's making the browser unusable. Please fix this ASAP!
I love it!!! I love it!!! I love it!!! I can't live without it. It frees up my time. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
I have loved this extension for over a year so that I'm now spoiled with it! But with the latest update on my Mac (MacOS Mojave 10.14.6) it doesn't seem to be working anymore :(
Best of them all period. I have tried many others, all failed to increase speed on some sites but this one works flawlessly. And the Hotkey Feature is cherry on top. Love the developers <3
Works perfectly.
Perfect! Well, almost. I wish I could control the size and transparency of the font that shows the video's speed. It's still a 9.5 out of 10 though.
This extension has changed my life. I can save soo much time by speeding up videos. A MUST HAVE chrome extension.
doesn't work on unacademy.com.
I don't know why but it automatically goes back 1.00 speed after a while
awesome extension now i can't live without it
works great, but this annoying speedometer number is floating above every video by default. i hate that i cannot hide it by default. So I'm looking to replace this with a different extension for this reason.
Not working anymore for some reason - same as other recent reviewers. Using latest Chrome 72 on Mac.
The video speed manager extension is simple to install and easy to use. It helps me get through a mass of training videos much faster. Unfortunately, I got a new MacBook Pro recently, and had to reinstall the extension. The controls all show up in the upper left corner, but clicking on them does nothing. Is there a fix for this?
wanted it to be on windows edge
Used to work perfectly, but recently has completely stopped working
I searched for "Facebook video" and this popped up, but it does not work on fb. the controls show up but it doesnt actually change!
doesn't work
Worked great up until recently, now when I click on speed up or slow down, nothing happens. Reinstalling extension nor, restarting Chrome do anything to fix this.
It helps alot think for making this
Crashes Netflix every 5 minutes when it is sped up. Not worth it.
I tried the more popular extension but didn't work. THIS actually did. All thanks to the developer for doing a great job!
This is the best Video Extension I have ever used. Now I am able to watch Netflix, Hulu, CBS and Amazon Prime Video at faster speeds, I can get through shows and boring movies faster than ever. How can I donate some money to you guys? it's worth every penny.
very good...thank you ^^
just didn't work
Works great for the most part, however I am not able to change the default settings - i mean it does show they changed in the UI but have no effect on playback.
good satisfy all reqirements
essential extension. everyone should install it. it saved me a lot of time.
sooooo helppppfuuullll ....why the hell i'm not use this add ons long time ago.......... what a regret!
This has saved me days of my life from watching slow talkers. Works on every site. Absolutely brilliant!
Does exactly what I need it to do, control playback speed, its amazing!
I've checked many extensions similar to it and this one is the best! It works flawlessly and is far more intuitive compared to other ones.
Awesome, works great and haven't seen any bugs
The most useful extension I've ever used. If you're a student, you need this.
Amazing how it works on most videos regardless of embedded players and It does what it says it does perfectly.
Best extension ever. This is clearly the best video speed controller and this is such an essential feature that should be part of every browser.
I can't stand videos without it :). Thanks developer for this excellent job
Nice, it works and functions very well
