Get answers to common questions about Flow Control
Flow Control works with any website that uses HTML5 video players, including YouTube, Netflix, Vimeo, educational platforms like Coursera and Udemy, and most video-hosting websites.
Flow Control uses the browser's built-in speed adjustment which preserves audio pitch even at higher speeds. This means voices won't sound distorted even at 2x speed.
Flow Control works alongside native speed controls. If you use both, whichever was applied last will take effect. For consistency, we recommend using only one method to control playback speed.
Speed ranges let you set different playback speeds based on video length. For example, you might want to play short videos at 1.25x speed, medium-length videos at 1.5x, and long videos at 2x. Flow Control automatically detects video duration and applies the appropriate speed.
