About VideoDefaults

Are you tired of changing your default YouTube playback speed? Yup, i also dream about day when it can be set directly at browser, or just within cookies. VideoDefaults remembers how you like to watch videos. For now i tried to build a simple solution for that. We shall only use available for us playback speeds/values. Also added some improved and non-interfering shortcuts for youtube, like tmux-like controlls(try Ctrl a o and type letters from label) If you get value out of it, there's an entirely optional Buy Me a Coffee ☕ https://buymeacoffee.com/kotmin Check jump overlay, and queue feature 😸 (more info and shortcuts below) | Chord | Action | | --- | --- | | `Ctrl+A` `o` | Open jump overlay (labels clickable elements) | | `Ctrl+A` `p` | Open queue overlay (add a video to the Up Next queue) | | `Ctrl+A` `Shift+P` | Open playlist picker for the current video (fuzzy-search, multi-add, create new) — watch page, and Shorts on a best-effort basis, requires being logged in | | `Ctrl+A` `y` | Go home | | `Ctrl+A` `v` | Set speed to preset 1 (default `1x`) | | `Ctrl+A` `b` | Set speed to preset 2 (default `1.5x`) | | `Ctrl+A` `n` | Set speed to preset 3 (default `2x`) | | `Ctrl+A` `h` | Toggle auto-apply default speed on video load | The prefix defaults to `Cmd+A` on macOS and `Ctrl+A` on Windows/Linux, fully overridable.
