This has been available since WMP 9 IIRC. You can also just press the fast forward button. Press it once to play at 1.4x. Press again to play at 2x. Press CTRL+Shift+N to go back to normal speed. There's also a variable speed selector under Enhancements (View | Enhancements | Play Speed Settings). You'll have trouble making out the audio beyond 2x though. This works with audio as well as video files.

good :)

Finaly I want to know how I can use the "view - enhancements - play speed settings" in my C#application. I use there the WMP with all functions and also the Fast/Slow but I cant communicate with the enhancements... s.o. an idea?

I use ths feature for a long time and really love it.

IT works well with my favourite video broadcasts, with DVDs and MP3s (good for audio books).

But it does NOT work with DIVX, XVID, etc.

Mohammed, can you clarify - is it the functional limitation of Media Player or of specific codecs?

Should I wait for some feature-rich DIVX codec that will provide for fast playback in WMP?

Or should I wait for next versions of WMP?
