How to speed up youtube's videos more than 16x with javascript?

1.3k views Asked by At

I use document.getElementsByClassName("video-stream html5-main-video")[0].playbackRate = x; and x from 0 to 16. There is an error if it bigger than 16

VM308:1 Uncaught DOMException: Failed to set the 'playbackRate' property on 'HTMLMediaElement': The provided playback rate (17) is not in the supported playback range.

No after 16x its not possible on the web browser itself. But you can download the video and use a media player that speeds up the video more than 16x.

For making the video speed upto 16x, the steps to do that are :- You can just place the cursor over the youtube video that you are watching and you can just scroll up from your mouse until the video speed becomes 16x.

Enjoy :)

The provided playback rate (17) is not in the supported playback range.

you cant have playback more than 16x

0.0625< video speed < 16

anyways, why do you want a very high playback rate tho?
