edX Super Speed plus Video Downloader greasemonkey script
This script adds the following features to the edX lecture video player:
- Adds four new playback speeds (2.0x, 2.5x, 3.0x, and 4.0x) in addition to the default speeds
- Adds a download button above the video player that lets you save the video for offline viewing
- Adds new keyboard shortcuts to let you control the video (note: this overrrides the default behavior for these shortcuts)
- Press SPACE to play/pause the video
- Pres LEFT/RIGHT to move the video 5 seconds backwards/forwards in time
- Press ALT+LEFT/RIGHT to move the video 15 seconds backwards/forwards in time
I will continue to maintain the legacy tampermonkey script for those who don't want to install a chrome extension. The instructions remain the same as before:
- Install Tampermonkey
- (Easiest) Click here to view the source file edX Super Speed.user.js Tampermonkey should automatically recognize the userscript and give you the option to install it.
- Alternatively, copy the source code from edX Super Speed.user.js
- Open Tampermonkey in your browser and click the Add Script tab (icon with a plus symbol)
- Paste the source into the script window and hit save
- Viola!
