YouTube Fast Forward & Rewind
Enhance your YouTube playback with YouTube Fast Forward & Rewind. Add custom skip buttons and configure keyboard shortcuts for precise seeking control.
Custom Skip Buttons: Add fast-forward/rewind buttons to the player controls with your preferred skip times.
On-Screen Skip Indicator: When you use your keyboard's arrow keys (`←` / `→`) to skip, a sleek new indicator now appears on the video. It shows you exactly how many seconds you're skipping and has smooth animations to give you clear feedback.
Usage Statistics: Curious about how much time you've saved? A new "Statistics" panel in the Advanced Settings tracks your total skips. This data is **100% private**, stored only on your computer, and is never collected or viewed by me. You can reset your stats at any time.
Action Delay Control: Fine-tune player responsiveness with a new experimental setting to add a small delay (in ms) after a skip command. Perfect for preventing buffering on some systems.
Custom Keyboard Seeking: Set custom skip durations for the left/right arrow keys.
Integrated Controls: Buttons fit seamlessly into the YouTube player interface.
Auto-Save: Your custom skip time settings are saved automatically.
Control your YouTube navigation exactly the way you want.

- (2025-01-10) Meep Meep: No keyboard buttons controls the forward/rewind. Left/Right arrow keys does the default 5 sec jump. Good for touch screen laptops I suppose
- (2024-12-19) Alex Puffenbarger: Excellent extension does exactly what it says plus the ability to change the amount it skips is great!
