Change Playback speed in playlist script

[rjtoeppe]

I have been working on changing the playlist script language I have figured out how to start it and stop it as specific points as below.

<vlc:id>0</vlc:id>
<vlc:option>start-time=27</vlc:option>
<vlc:option>stop-time=90</vlc:option>

I cannot figure out how to change the playback speed at the same time. Is there a line of code I can use to change it either slower or faster than the preset 1

Hallo,

I have the same problem.

<vlc:option>rate=2.0</vlc:option>

has no effect.

Works on the command line, not sure if it works in playlist files.

If I open (Media > Open (advanced)... >) a video with :rate option ([v] Show more options > Edit options [ :rate=1.5]), then the video plays with the desired rate. Then I open another video the same way with different option (:rate=2) and it plays with the new rate. So now I have two videos loaded in the playlist and each of them can play its own rate if I press Next button to play another video. I can save the playlist in a file (Media > Save Playlist to File... > .xspf /.m3u) with all advanced options. So the problem is loading of playlist file and application of appropriate options (<vlc:option> or #EXTVLCOPT:), isn't it? A bug?
