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 through a daily allowance, your own OpenAI or Anthropic key, or a local model; here is what each one sends.

What a Google sign-in adds to Video Controls Plus, how to delete your data, how settings sync works, and how to export your settings.

What Video Controls Plus stores and records, signed out and signed in, and what each browser permission is used for.

What to check when Video Controls Plus does not appear on a site, a key does nothing, a control is unavailable, or a setting has no effect.

Short answers about speed, A-B loop, audio boost, screenshots, filters, shortcuts, supported sites, Netflix, privacy and deleting your data.

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 sign-in.

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.

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 a sign-in.

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

After you sign in, set brightness, contrast and saturation from 0% to 200%, use grayscale, invert or night mode, and save up to 20 presets.

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 a sign-in.

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 signed out.

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

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, and only the bracket, punctuation and Esc keys work alone.

Give any shortcut another key in Settings, switch shortcuts off one by one or by section, and keep your keys across devices while signed in.

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.

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.
