Video Controls Plus is a browser extension that adds playback controls to HTML5 video on any site, with extra tools on YouTube, Netflix and LinkedIn.

Video summaries and LinkedIn writing help run on the Shared allowance, your own OpenAI or Anthropic key, or a local model. Speak runs on the Shared allowance only. Here is what each one sends.

Video Controls Plus is a browser extension for HTML5 video, built and maintained by the Video Controls Plus team.

Add Video Controls Plus from the Chrome Web Store, Microsoft Edge Add-ons or Firefox Add-ons, and speed control works as soon as it is installed.

Open a video, change the speed with the bracket keys, find the widget and the popup, and see which controls need a connected account.

Pause Video Controls Plus on a single site from the popup, for 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week, or until you turn it back on.

Start a short tour of a website page from the header, jump to any step, and walk through Video Controls Plus in six steps on the How it works page.

Change video speed in 0.1x steps with the bracket keys or the widget slider up to 4x, type a custom speed up to 16x, and use 8 preset speeds.

Set point A and point B and the video replays the stretch between them, forever, once, or 1 to 20 times; the A-B loop needs an account.

Raise a video's volume up to 400% and switch on normalize to even out loud and quiet parts; audio boost needs an account.

With a connected account, set brightness, contrast and saturation from 0% to 200%, use grayscale, invert or night mode, and save up to 20 presets.

Warm the picture, make colors easier to tell apart, restyle a site's own captions and add a reading guide; Comfort needs no account and sends nothing.

With a connected account, add 20 color grades, four art looks, sharpen, vignette, film grain, a text overlay and blurred regions; Zoom & fit needs no account.

With a connected account, set the left-right balance, change a voice without changing the speed, add a room, even out loudness and set a limiter; not on protected video.

With a connected account, make a GIF, record a clip or a time-lapse, take a screenshot burst, build a contact sheet and annotate a screenshot, all made on your device.

Block autoplay, keep a speed per site, ramp the speed up, set reminders and pause other tabs, with no account; Up next and resume from another device need a connected account.

Set a daily amount of video, limits for single sites and blocked sites, lock them with a PIN, and choose what Focus Mode hides; no account, and nothing is sent.

Run focus rounds and breaks with the Study timer, read a video's own captions as a transcript, turn them into chapters with one AI run, and practice a loop.

With a connected account, save a quiz moment, a word, a diary entry, a learning-path video or a collection item from the widget, and search everything you saved.

Share a link at the current time with a QR code, record a square or vertical clip, and start a watch party for up to 20 people that keeps play, pause, seeking and speed in step.

Press Ctrl + Alt + C to save the current video frame as PNG or JPEG, download it or copy it, with an optional timestamp; it needs an account.

Save notes with the video timestamp from the widget's Tools tab, export them as Markdown, text or JSON, and add a bookmark at the current moment.

Press Ctrl + Alt + P to put the video in a Picture-in-Picture window, or let it enter on its own when you scroll away; it works without an account.

Auto-skip clicks the skip buttons that Netflix, Prime Video and YouTube show; it is off by default and needs an account.

Pick the floating widget or notification only, set the widget's position, size and how it opens, and choose a theme and a language.

Every default key in Video Controls Plus: letter and digit keys need Ctrl + Alt, only the bracket, punctuation and Esc keys work alone, and the optional shortcuts start with no key.

Give any shortcut another key in Settings, switch shortcuts off one by one or by section, and keep your keys across devices with a connected account.

On YouTube the core controls work as on any site, and each of the YouTube extras has its own switch in Settings; most are on by default.

Speed and the core controls work on Netflix; the Netflix extras are off until you switch them on, and recovery keys take over in one case.

On LinkedIn the core video controls work, and a set of LinkedIn tools run from the widget or the right-click menu; switches are in Settings.

Video Controls Plus works on any site that plays a standard HTML5 video, including embedded players, with extra tools on YouTube, Netflix and LinkedIn.

Seven website pages now have a short tour you start from the header, and a new How it works page walks through Video Controls Plus in six steps.

The widget does a lot more now: comfort for your eyes and captions, study tools, your library, looks and zoom, voices and rooms, GIFs and clips, automatic playback, and watch parties.

You can now say a note instead of typing it, every AI run has a level, and a new Plans page shows what each plan gives.

Your account now lives on our website, and the extension connects to it on Chrome, Edge and Firefox. Everyone connects once after this update.

Netflix and LinkedIn menu actions now run at once, and Settings shows only the switches and shortcuts that do something.

When the extension clears Netflix's 'device isn't part of the Netflix Household' screen, Netflix hides its own player controls.

The team's other apps get a permanent home in Settings, and the promotional panel comes off the top of every Settings page.

AI features arrive (video summaries and LinkedIn writing help), playback controls reach videos embedded on other sites.
