About VelocityX — Video Speed Controller
VelocityX gives you complete control over HTML5 video playback speed —
directly from a popup, a customizable on-video overlay, keyboard shortcuts,
or a full settings dashboard. Built for people who watch online courses,
tutorials, lectures, research videos, long reviews, and YouTube Shorts,
VelocityX turns passive watching into focused, efficient learning.
