Netflix Video Extension: Speed Controller & Volume Booster

Netflix has a hidden speed selector that maxes out at 1.5×. VidBar unlocks pitch-corrected speeds across the full 0.25×–16× range, boosts whispered dialogue with a safe limiter, adds Karaoke Mode on supported videos, and lets you bookmark moments to share with a friend. ### How to Speed Up Netflix Beyond 1.5x Binge-watching your favorite shows shouldn’t be limited by native player restrictions. While the default platform only lets you speed up Netflix to 1.5x, our browser extension unlocks granular video speed control. You can precisely adjust your viewing speed up to 16x using custom keyboard shortcuts, complete with automatic pitch-correction so the dialogue always sounds natural. Whether you are skimming a slow documentary or just trying to finish a season finale faster, you have full control over the pacing. ### Fix Quiet Netflix Audio & Boost Dialogue One of the biggest complaints about streaming movies on a laptop is that the dialogue is often far too quiet, while the action scenes are overwhelmingly loud. Our extension solves this by working as an intelligent volume booster for Netflix. You can amplify the overall volume up to 500%, while our built-in audio compressor and equalizer automatically balance out the loud explosions and quiet whispers. Stop constantly riding your volume keys and enjoy perfectly leveled, crystal-clear cinematic audio.
