Courses: plan by speed
Most people watch tutorials faster than 1×. Divide by your usual speed to see how many sessions a course really takes.
"It's 40 videos, I'll finish this weekend."
"It's 11 hours at 1×, about 7 at 1.5× — three evenings."
Paste a playlist link. Get the total watch time, the average video length, and how long it takes at 1.25×, 1.5×, 1.75× and 2× — handy for courses, lecture series and binge plans.

Private and deleted videos still take a slot in the playlist but have no public duration, so they're left out and counted separately.
