Description from store Tired of Chrome's primitive built-in HTML5 video player? This extension adds an extensive list of keyboard controls to improve your viewing experience. The shortcuts are only active on videos with the default controls enabled, so don't worry about them messing up YouTube or other custom video players. To enable controls (and keyboard shortcuts) on videos that don't have them, just right-click the video in question and select "Show controls".

(2019-08-01) Minho Cho: 편하긴한데 이 앱 쓰면서부터 비디오 반응속도가 느려졌네요. 그게 확연히 보여요.
(2019-06-23) Justice Seeker: No longer maintained. Doesn't work with most sites since it disables itself. Some sites can be re-enabled by right-clicking and selecting 'enable controls' however about half of the time it STILL DOESN'T WORK. No updates since 2017 means these issues will never be fixed. Suspicious reviews in history that appear identical to reviews of other speed control extensions. Author should step up or remove extension completely.
(2019-03-16) Nguyen Pham: ok
(2019-02-06) ThisDaveAndThatJohn: Estensione che salva i nervi!! In tutti i player normali ho abitudine di saltare 5 sec. in avanti o indietro usando le frecce, invece, il player standart non ha questa funzione. Questa estensione lo risolve. Consiglio un sacco!!!
