Speed changes have a noticeably increased delay after a recent update about globalspeed HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe those commits were only published in 3.0.988. To give the latest version a try, you can go to chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode on the top right and press Update.

Yes, this is probably a case of https://xkcd.com/1172/ , I do apologise in advance :P

Also, I don't accept your apology. :) PS: I miss the days when people use to reference xkcd comics all the time.

Ah, it seems that the commit I referenced was probably a fix for this exact thing, given the timing changes. It's working the same as it did before whatever version change auto updated from the web store.

Regarding xkcd posting, I never see anyone else doing it but I have so many of the good ones memorised that there's always bound to be a situation where it comes up and I take advantage of that :P

Thanks for the plugin, it's awesome.

That's probably it. Another user previously reported the speed was changing slowly. I'll probably lower the delay even further in the next update.

I know there are a variety of uses for this plugin, but its prime use for me is comedic, and rapid pitch / speed changes are something that I have come to use a lot when watching videos alone or with friends simply because it's funny.

By the way, there's a new shortcut combination that might be helpful here. Maybe not, since it has a longer delay than simply setting the speed. From the list of shortcuts you can create, there's an option called "presets...", once selected, you will have an option to create a "temporary speed" combination. It's three shortcuts that are set to the G key. While you hold down G key, it will play on 3x speed, and once you release, it will go back to your previous speed. If you change the shortcut key, make sure to change for all three.
