Video Speed Control: A Firefox add-on for HTML5 Videos
'Video Speed Control' is a Firefox add-on that introduces a simple way to control the playback speed of all HTML5 video elements in a page. Users need to play a video, open the toolbar popup user interface, modify the playback speed, and confirm the change. The add-on needs user-action for each speed change and for every page reload. It provides a range between 0.07x to 16x for speed modification.
