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.

• 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.
