You get a speaker who goes at a snails pace so you tweak the speed a bit to move faster. I'm sure others have additional uses for slowing or speeding up video but that's the only time I personally use anything like this. I tend to watch stuff or listen to stuff as i do something else, like play a video game. I think there are certain circumstances that i find myself in where i would watch movies and tv shows at a 2x speed or at least 1.5. I have conditioned my brain by listening to audiobooks and podcasts at faster speeds (up to 3x) and i now almost exclusively watch any youtube video at least 1.5x. so i think this feature would get used a lot with movies and tv shows. some may not use it, i know i certainly would. I am not familiar with the emby codebase or how this type of feature would get implemented but I am a developer and if getting this feature required me to spend some nights and weekends helping where i can. i'd love to contribute. if that's possible please let me know.
Carlo 4552 Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I agree fully with audiiobooks, podcasts as that's sort of the type of thing I was talking about. Who knows, I might even do this for shows or movies when I using them only for background noise while working. It would be a useful feature to have regardless of how each of us use it. One of the "stumbling blocks" I'd see possibly happening is someone speeding up videos that need transcoding and not keeping up and getting stuttering. But that's bridge to cross later. "Hey doc it hurts when I do this". "Well then I'd advise you to stop doing that".
MAX92 78 Posted August 12, 2020 Posted August 12, 2020 Even on Netflix you can adjust the read speed !
Luke 40082 Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 This will be in Emby Server 4.5. You'll be able to use the controls in the video player to set the playback speed. 3 1

bg2019 5 Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 That's great! Thanks Luke. Presumably this would cover audio playback as well as video?

Dan_Austin 62 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 @Luke Any chance this will enable FFWD/RWD improvements to allow for a non-skip style version on apps that use skip only navigation? Something along the lines of one press of FFWD gets 2x realtime, a second press gets 3x, a third 5x (rates are meant as an example only). Play or fourth press returns to realtime playback. Note IF this changes enables it, THEN I will open a feature request in the specific apps. No sense asking for something that is not possible...
Luke 40082 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Perhaps, but initially it will be in a speed menu option under the settings cog in the video player.
MSV 1 Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 Works on PC but on on Android App (no such option on the app) ? Is it normal ?
Luke 40082 Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 It will be coming to all apps that can support it in the near future. Thanks for the feedback.

Just updated - great to see this in the video player which will certainly be useful. I can't see it as an option anywhere for audio playback; I know this is an in-progress enhancement, so hopefully it's on the list as it will be useful for podcasts. A good start though. Thanks!
MAX92 78 Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Is it possible in next version to accelerate until 2x ?

MAX92 78 Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 A thing that could be cool, change the finished time when you accelerate.
lalajee 2 Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 I just upgraded my emby portal to 4.5 but I dont see this option in the browser.

ebr 15667 Posted October 7, 2020 Posted October 7, 2020 Hi. You are asking about playback speed, correct?
