Stretch Video
(as seen in the blog entry we made here)

This is a script allowing you to change the aspect ratio of a video you're watching on a web page coded in HTML5 (YouTube, Odysee, PeerTube and alike - For videos hosted on our website you don't need this ;-)

Stretch Video - The original code from A. Pruss. Drag and drop this on your bookmark toolbar (desktop browser). To use: click and enter a couple of values (for example |1.25,1| = 25% expand, same height; |.70,1| = 30% shrink, same height).

Stretch 4:3 - Version with default values at 4:3. Useful for a plethora of 4:3 movies (maybe some in 5:4) uploaded by many in the wrong 16:9 ratio. Drag and drop on the bookmark toolbar. To use: click and hit "enter". Optionally use it as the original version with arbitrary values.

You don't need both versions, pick the one you prefer.

 

Video Rate
The following is a script allowing you to change the speed of a video on a web page.

Video Rate - Useful mainly for language students who like to watch slowed down movies or videos, or if you are in a hurry and need to watch a content faster, if the player itself doesn't offer this option or if you want a more precise tuning. Drag and drop on your bookmark toolbar.

 

"Stretch Video" and "Video Rate" are in English. You can change the language yourself in the code available on the GitHub of the author, but if you don't know how to deal with it please contact us.
