Video Speed Controller

It's basic that you get a video playback controller in all the online videos and streaming platforms. Furthermore, a platform like YouTube also offers dedicated speed-controlling functions; thus, it's easy to adjust the video playing speed. However, those controllers don't offer many options. Additionally, several online media platforms don't have the function to increase or decrease the playback speed.
