To slow down or speed up a YouTube video in a browser, visit YouTube.com and navigate to a YouTube video. Open the playback toolbar and click the "gear" icon located in the bottom right corner of the video's area.
In the menu that appears, click on "Playback speed".
In the "Playback speed" menu, you can select a speed between 0.25 and 2 times the speed, including a custom value within this range. With "1" being the normal speed, any value less than 1 will slow down the video, while any value greater than 1 will speed up the video.
After that, click outside the menu to close it and the next time you press the play button, the video will play at the speed you selected. If you need to reset it to normal, click the gear icon again, select "Playback speed" and press "1" from the list.
