A way to play a youtube video on Chromecast with settable speed
All this does is provide a form and display the video in an iframe. As of March 26th 2017 you can then follow these steps
- chromecast the page
- enter a youtube url
- set the playback speed
- click the fullscreen icon
Yay! I can watch videos at 1.5x or 2.x speed on my TV!
