How to set playback rate

The playback rate is the rate that the media file is being played at.

Plover2CAT displays the playback rate in the Media Controls dock, 1.0x by default.

Change playback rate

Click the up and down arrows in the playback rate box to increment the value by +/-0.05. It is also possible to hover the mouse over the input box and scroll to change the value. The playback rate is limited to a value between 0.05 to 2.

Plover2CAT has Speed Up and Slow Down under the Media menu. These buttons will increment the playback rate up/down. The benefit is that these menu items have shortcuts so it is possible to assign outlines to control the playback rate without needing to move away from the keyboard.
