edX++ Chrome Extension

This script adds the following features to the edX lecture video player:

2. Adds a download button above the video player that lets you save the video for offline viewing
3. Adds new keyboard shortcuts to let you control the video (note: this overrrides the default behavior for these shortcuts)

   2. Pres LEFT/RIGHT to move the video 5 seconds backwards/forwards in time
   3. Press ALT+LEFT/RIGHT to move the video 15 seconds backwards/forwards in time

Legacy Tampermonkey Script

I will continue to maintain the legacy tampermonkey script for those who don't want to install a chrome extension. The instructions remain the same as before:

1. Install Tampermonkey
2. (Easiest) Click here to view the source file edX Super Speed.user.js Tampermonkey should automatically recognize the userscript and give you the option to install it.
3. Alternatively, copy the source code from edX Super Speed.user.js
4. Open Tampermonkey in your browser and click the Add Script tab (icon with a plus symbol)
5. Paste the source into the script window and hit save
6. Viola!
