"Can you recommend a video speed controller for online videos?" is frequently asked on Reddit, Quora and other communities. Even though the player allows for speed change, it is not granular enough. For instance, what if you prefer playing back YouTube at 1.7x instead of 1.5x or 2.0x? Other times, the speed control option may be missing if the video is embedded on a webpage, such as Vimeo videos, Netflix, HBO, Amazon, or proprietary video players.
