Speed control in page view works as expected, but in sentence view always seems to play back at 1x whatever the selected speed. This is using the browser app and latest Chrome version on Windows 11, and reading a YouTube video imported via an audio file. (The original video has embedded subtitles rather than CC, which I didn’t want to view, but is otherwise excellent beginner material.)
Is there some setting that I have failed to spot or is it an apparent bug or some artefact of importing as an audio file?
Hi @johnd2 !
To play the audio/video with the changed speed in Sentence View you can:
1 Choose the speed by clicking on the small dropdown icon near the turtle/
rabbit button.
2 Click on the turtle/rabbit button
Please, let me know if this does not work for you.
Thanks for the reply but I do understand how one is meant to change the speed in Sentence mode. The problem is that this is not working for me on my - presumably commonplace - Windows 11 / Chrome platform. Whichever speed I select from this button always plays at the same (1x ?) speed.
@johnd2 I tested on my end on Chrome too and it does work. I think what you are doing wrong is, that after you select a desired speed, you need to click on the turtle to play that audio speed, not on the regular play button.
Fantastic! I see my mistake now. Thanks Zoran and also apologies to Denys_B, whose post I misinterpreted. It’s perhaps not the most intuitive UI element, but all OK now that I know what to do.
