Does not work with Facebook videos

[Wisdawn]

Again, thank you very much for the best Chrome extension for playback speed today in the market!

It would be great if you get the extension to work on Facebook videos. Here is an example:

@Wisdawn unfortunately FB appears to use Flash.. and we can't control playback video for Flash. Once FB switches to HTML5 video, the extension should automatically start working..

Thank you for clarifying.

Facebook's use of flash annoyed me too so I made a Chrome extension to convert them to HTML5 videos so they can be sped up: https://github.com/jordn/facebook-html5video

NB: It's very crude at this point and doesn't play nice with all videos. Pull Requests and Issues welcome.

Thank you, Jordan. I look forwards to your extension being improved to a level you can be happy with! We do need to save time getting through some of the videos around, especially in a place like Facebook!
