wow, that narrator is so stuffy, and so slow. I don't know why Vimeo doesn't let you watch on 1.5x, but I had to give up on the boredom 1 min in.

I use a Vimeo plugin called "Vimeo repeat & speed" for Firefox, allows you to watch at any speed.

Video Speed Controller can do the same, and works on all HTML 5 video.

You can always modify the speed of an HTML5 player, like Vimeo's. Unfortunately, they don't expose the controls. Fortunately, you can modify it in JS by setting the playbackRate property.

Here're my two bookmarklets, that work on all non-iframe HTML5 video (alas, it doesn't work through an iframe boundary, because of the iframe security model).

javascript:void%20function(){document.querySelector(%22video%22).playbackRate=1.7}();

javascript:void%20function(){document.querySelector(%22video%22).playbackRate=parseFloat(prompt(%22Set%20the%20playback%20rate%22))}();
