Hi. is there any current method or any plans for future builds to display the plaback speed in a skinable interface?

Currently with the default windows WXWidgets interface there is a 1x, 2x,3x etc speed display as shown in the image below (1x.0).



Alternatively if I could have a button to play at a fixed speed (say 4X) and another button to play at normal speed this would also work.

Thanks.

You can use the actions vlc.faster() and vlc.slower() for your buttons (see http://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins2-create.html#actions)

I agree - a speed indicator or the ability to se the playback speed to a particular value would be swell!

Would it be enough for your needs if the vlc.play() action would restore the normal speed?

Yes that would be ideal if selecting vlc.play() action would return to normal play speed.

Cheers

Is this new function on vlc.play() (play at normal speed if either FF or FW is in action) in any of the nightly dev builds yet ?

Thanks for you help.

No, nothing was done yet.
