Yeah, I've been doing this too, but only after I've determined something to be too boring when I try to watch it normally. I'm glad I didn't watch Puella Magi at 2x, for instance.

Another tip: Youtube can be watched at 1.5 and 2x, as well as slower speeds, but you have to go to testtube first and enable the experimental HTML 5 player.

(Currently it seems a little bugged: if you select a higher speed, you can't go back to 1x, because the normal speed button doesn't work. Reloading fixes that.)

I've been looking for a way to do this automatically. Whenever I start a video, I have to manually change the speed to 2x; sometimes I forget and end up wasting large amounts of time. I've been looking for a chrome extension or something, but I can't find one.

Has anyone had any luck with automating this?
