Variable Speed YouTube videos on Chrome Browser

[markkaz]

I have been using the feature quite a bit lately. I noticed it when using the Chrome browser but not FireFox. On a computer, when you click on the gear icon, here are the available options including slo-mo!

.25
.5
normal
1.25
1.5
2x

It comes in handy to use the faster speeds with some unboxing videos. Even mine LOL

Have you been using the feature as well? If so, for what situations?

Mainly use it to slow music videos down into satanic chants.

Only used it a few times when I need to see something close to frame-by-frame

I use it for educational or instructional videos where you dont need it to play at real time and you can still understand whats happening when the video is sped up.

 

[SlenderMan]

I use it sometimes on viral videos (as Shark caught on GoPro), VFX stuff, etc...

I hadnt seen it before, I dont see myself using all that much as most of the videos I watch are rather short.
