About WheelPilot for YouTube

WheelPilot for YouTube puts fast, configurable playback controls directly under your mouse pointer. Scroll over the left side of the player to seek, the right side to change volume, or hold the left mouse button and scroll to change playback speed. Scroll anywhere over YouTube's time display to change speed without clicking the minus or plus buttons. You can also zoom the video with the wheel and drag the enlarged frame. MAKE THE PLAYER YOURS Adjust wheel-zone boundaries, swap actions between zones, reverse directions, and choose step sizes. The interactive tour highlights every active area on an open YouTube video and lets you resize the zones visually. MORE PLAYBACK TOOLS • Playback speed from 0.1× to 16× • Six configurable speed presets • Automatic speed restore and per-channel speed memory • Speed-aware remaining watch time • Live-stream catch-up and live delay • Frame-by-frame stepping, A–B section looping, and frame screenshots • Optional volume boost, video zoom, and compact fullscreen progress line • Settings export and import PRIVACY FIRST WheelPilot for YouTube works locally in your browser.
