so good
this is one of the most useful apps for safari. shortcut for picture in picture it also great. Thanks
Great
Allows me to time travel
works and free
wish there were less lag changing speeds
Good but ONE major problem :(
I love almost everything about this... the only problem is that video audio goes silent for a brief second whenever I press a keyboard shortcut to change the speed. I find myself tweaking the speed of videos rather often, so this ends up really hurting my viewing experience, and it wasn't an issue w/ the similar extension I used for chrome... Really hoping the devs can fix this :(

Hi luketheman123! Thank you for the feedback. I've actually looked into this problem before, and the brief silence is caused by the way Safari specifically processes and handles video playback, something which I unfortunately haven't figured out how to fix via Accelerate.
Couldn’t get it to work
Hate to leave a negative review. But I could not get this to work at all and feel like some explanation for a 1 star is needed. Maybe it is my older Macbok running High Sierra’s fault. Had high hopes and really, really wanted it to work, I am consuming some MIT OpenCourseware videos and a 1.5x or 1.75 speed would be most welcome. The documentation is awfully sparse. Once installed the extension kept videos from starting to play at all (default speed of zero didn’t help, but changed to 1 still didn’t function). Then on top of that, dragging it to the trash from the application folder didn’t work and I had to use an uninstaller program. Maybe v3.0 will do the trick.

Hey surfdoc37, thanks for leaving the feedback, and I'm sorry Accelerate didn't work. If you haven't tried them already, I do have some troubleshooting steps in an FAQ: https://ritamsarmah.github.io/apps/accelerate/faq.html. Otherwise, I'd appreciate an email at sarmah.ritam@gmail.com to see if I can help fix the issue/bug.
App is absolutely fantastic
Total game changer for people who have to watch a lot of lecture material but can't download the video files.
Broke safari
This plugin worked for like 10 mins after I installed it. After that, videos in Safari would. not. play. Nothing. Youtube, FB videos, ads, nothing would play. Chrome worked fine.
A few days after installing it, I finally realized it was the plugin. I uninstalled it and everything works fine now.

I can now watch Netflix at 1.5x at HD quality!
I use this with safari to watch Netflix at 1.5x speed or so. Previously, I used Chrome and another extention, but Chrome did not show Netflix in full quality. This extension allows me to watch Netflix in HD quality with no issues.
Thank you for developing this extension. My only question is can you make this for the iPad?

Good, but Chipmunks
I love this, it works really well, and finally i have a speed up for Safari instead of swapping between Chrome and Safari.
Only issue is, it chipmunks sound, and anyone talking sounds just that little bit wrong. The one on Chrome doesn't do this, so I think I will still go there for Netflix

Works exactly as it should
Coming over from Chrome I was worried I wouldn't be able to find a video speed controller, but this extension is perfect. Thanks so much!
