Media Playback Speed free WordPress plugin

This short, handy plugin will add playback buttons to your audio, video & playlist elements added via the built-in WordPress shortcodes for media using mediaelement.js. Each set of buttons is configured for it’s corresponding element on the page, so you can adjust the speed of multiple files independently. There is currently no persistence implemented in this plugin. It just scratches an itch to be able to broadly adjust media playback speeds using the HTML api.

The .playback-rate-button.mejs-active selector will be deprecated in version 2.
