How do I loop a specific section of a YouTube video?

Install Pip Cue, open the YouTube video, press Alt+Shift+M for Cinematic PiP, then press [ to mark the start and ] to mark the end. The video repeats that section until you clear the loop.

Does Pip Cue change pitch when slowing down YouTube?

No. Pip Cue uses the HTML5 player's preserves-pitch playback rate, so songs and speech stay at their original key while only the tempo changes.

What speeds can I play YouTube at with Pip Cue?

0.25x, 0.5x, 0.75x, 1x, 1.5x, and 2x. All available inside Cinematic PiP, all without pitch shift.

Is the A-B loop free?

Yes. The A-B loop and the speed picker are in the free version. No subscription, no account required.

Speed changes, pitch doesn't

Pip Cue alters playback speed only. A song at 0.5x is still in the original key. If you need to transpose to a different key for vocal range or instrument tuning, pair Pip Cue with a dedicated pitch-shifting tool — they coexist fine in the same browser.
