A housekeeping release with no change you'll notice while watching.

  • Chrono takes no donations. "Support Chrono" still opens a page where you can rate, star or share it, and the code now calls that link support, not tip.
  • A new README, with screenshots, store links and an install table.

The Chrome Web Store and Firefox Add-ons stay on 3.0.0, which behaves the same. The zips below are for anyone building or reviewing from source.

Chrono 3.0.0 is a ground-up rewrite. It fixes the old "times only show after a reload" bug (#2), and it now runs on Firefox as well as Chrome.

What's new

  • Panel at the top of the sidebar, styled like the rest of the page: the watch time left at your speed, your finish time ("Ends 3:45 PM · at 1.5×"), and speed − / +.
  • Speed table: remaining and finish time at every speed from 0.25× to 4×. Click a row to switch.
  • Chapter scope and Playlist scope: time left in the current chapter, or up to any entry in a playlist.
  • Targets: set "Done by 6 PM" or "I have 45 min", and Chrono works out the required speed and applies it in one click.
  • Past 2×: + keeps going in 0.25× steps up to 4×.
  • Player badge (optional): "/ ends 3:45 PM" after the player's time, fullscreen included.
  • Playlist summary on playlist pages: total length, watch time at your speed, and how many entries are unavailable.
  • Pauses during ad breaks, stays honest on live streams, and works in background tabs and across in-page navigation.
  • Keyboard and screen-reader friendly, follows the page's light or dark theme, and respects reduced motion.

Privacy

No analytics, no tracking, no account. The only permission is storage, and Chrono runs only on www.youtube.com.
