Vidimote for Safari 4+

Video speed/playback control

IOSPIRIT GmbH

    • $2.99

Description

Control playback, speed, PiP (& more) of web videos in Safari - with this clever web extension.

Vidimote upgrades for your video watching experience:

• SPEEEED: watch videos at up to 2 x original speed, finely adjustable in 5% steps. Save time watching videos - without missing out on any content. Or watch a live stream's recorded part at increased speed - until you're "back to live".

• EXTENDED PICTURE IN PICTURE (PiP): Vidimote adds controls to the macOS PiP feature for Safari web videos: now you can jump ±10 seconds, adjust speed, see the time remaining and more. Use Vidimote to move web videos to PiP, then control them directly there and continue watching while using other apps.

• CONTROL: jump ±10 seconds, use the position slider and - of course - play and pause.

• SKIP: quickly skip to the end of a video you don't want to see

• ACTUAL TIME REMAINING: see how much _actual_ time remains to the end of the video - adjusted to the playback speed.

• LIVE STREAM CLOCK: see the approximate clock time for your current position in the live stream, making it really easy to find - for example - the beginning of a show.

• DEFAULT SPEED: in the app, pick a default speed in which you want web videos in Safari to be played back by default.

• VOLUME: precisely control the volume of web videos with Vidimote's large slider with built-in percentage display.

• MUTE/UNMUTE: mute and unmute web videos.

• SETTINGS: launch the app to change the default speed, jump intervals, minimum and maximum speeds.

CamCube ,

How can I set jump back and forward second?

What I wish is to set my own jump back and forward time to 3 seconds rather than the default 10s. But I cannot find it has such setting for us.

Developer Response ,

Since version 1.5, you can now set your own jump intervals in the app.

Great app, great interface, works on MOBILE Safari! (😊)

So grateful to have access to this on iPad/iPhone!

I would request you add ability to control embedded *audio* files as well (eg Washington Post audio narration). For now I added another extension to do that!

Not bad but it should be cheaper

I like the app I just hate the fact that the video in the back gets alittle darker when you have the control showing , alittle update shoukd fix that other than that all good .
