- Rated 4 out of 5by electron, 5 years agoSimple UI. Does what it is supposed to do.
I wish it could set the default playback speed. Currently, I change the setting for every video that I'm viewing. - Rated 5 out of 5by Kaepora Gaebora, 5 years agoI find the add on to be wonderful and have been using it for years. I am very much appreciating the update the former updates for keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Alt+Shift+Right for faster speed).
However, since the last update, the new keyboard shortcuts conflict with FireFox's default "Ctrl+Shift+Left" as well as "Ctrl+Shift+Right" (e.g.a for the address bar as well as find bar). This sadly reduces the workflow and everyday use. I guess it's easy to fix and want to Thank You in advance! Since I think it's the #1 Playback Speed service, it's worth 5 stars even now. (For more details, there is already a thread form another user on github.) Thank you!Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Kailῑῑ, 6 years agoI love whoever made this: it's simple and useful. Just wish I could adjust the amount the key shortcuts change speed.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Spencer Reid, 7 years agoSimple, lightweight and accurate!
I got positively surprised that it works on so many different sites. It's very fast accessible and very handy. Definitely a 5/5.
They have improved so much that the add on is nearly perfect now! One of the golden trio for add ons to Firefox! 🌟
What I miss:
1. An option for a default playback speed / to lock a speed setting for all the videos and sites. (Just a box to check with "lock current speed" and to uncheck when watching videos in normal speed.)
Thank you so much for a great add-on and service!Developer response

- Rated 5 out of 5by Skeletonxf, 7 years agoEasy to use
I suggest making the all_urls permission granted at runtime rather than required for installation, it's nice that it works on embedded videos now but for me 99% of the use case won't need that permission granted and I'm a little weary to grant it permanently. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12936103, 8 years agoI do wish the settings could be locked so i didn not need to click it every time i watch something. Just a humble recommendation from your only reviewer
