Nothing is required that I know of. Here is a video. At the bottom right there is the settings icon - gear shaped. Speed is an option.

I have seen on a small minority of videos the option wasn't present in settings however researching on the title can sometimes get a link to a video that is.

Weird, when I click on settings for that video, I only see options for Annotations, Subtitles/CC, and Quality. When I click on the Options link to the right of Subtitles/CC, I see all kinds of options for fonts and colors, but nothing for speed.

I normally use chrome. But I did see the problem with IE. IE is using the default video player. You want to use the htlm5 player.

Go to this page and select the 'use html5' button and try again. https://www.youtube.com/html5
