X Speed Controller

A Chromium extension that adds a popup to your toolbar with:

• An on/off toggle
• A speed slider from 0.1x to 4.0x (default: 2.0x)
• A Turbo speed slider from 2.0x to 4.0x (default: 2.0x)

When enabled, X videos play at the chosen speed automatically. When disabled, playback returns to normal (1.0x). Settings sync across browsers through chrome.storage.sync.

Notes

Built upon the previous code of the Youtube Speed Controller repository, therefore, may contain redundant code.

Mentions

Inspired by dobval/youtube2x, a script in which it hardcodes 2x playback on YouTube.
This extension aims to widen it, through an UI, a switch and an adjustable slider.
