This application is designed for YouTube live streaming to improve the live viewing experience. ⭐ Key Features .Auto catch-up acceleration: When the live indicator turns gray (behind live), playback automatically switches to your configured speed. .Sync recovery: When the indicator returns to red, playback automatically goes back to normal speed. .Speed control buttons: Manually fine-tune DVR playback speed. Update History (Highlights) 1.28: Restored smooth acceleration and turbo catch-up: playback gradually returns to 1x near live, maintains your target speed at moderate delays and speeds up further when you fall farther behind. Added a translucent catch-up switch to the right of the live indicator, grouped with the speed controls. When off, decrease, target speed, increase and current speed remain visible, dimmed and disabled. The toolbar now has rounded styling that matches YouTube, with improved spacing in narrow windows. Catch-up controls appear only on live streams, staying hidden on regular videos and live archives. Switching videos or recovering the extension does not automatically reload the viewing page. 1.27.5: Improved live catch-up stability while preserving three-stage speed control: smooth adjustment near live, the configured speed for moderate delays, and additional acceleration for larger delays. Normal speed resumes when the live indicator turns red. Fixed unexpected speed resets during temporary metadata gaps and missing speed controls, while retaining the original bottom toolbar. Improved recovery when switching videos or restoring the extension without automatically reloading the watch page. Clarified settings for retired features. 1.26: Removed features no longer allowed by YouTube policies. Added a support link on the settings page. Support is completely optional and up to your discretion. 1.11+: Ongoing maintenance and bug fixes. 1.6–1.10: Added settings page, style refinements, bug fixes, and UI options such as opacity and width. 1.5: Updated description to clearly position this extension as a “DVR-focused acceleration” tool. 1.1–1.4: Improved event detection, fixed DVR detection, and resolved small window issues.
