Bug ID: 469338
Summary: Would be appreciated to have a way of adjusting the
speed of playback in Kaffeine. It would be even nicer
if I could specify a default speed per directory.
Classification: Applications
Product: kaffeine
Version: unspecified
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

Severity: wishlist

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.

***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start playing a transport stream video (from tvheadend).
2. Look for any opportunity to adjust the playback speed.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
There are apparently no options for specifying a playback speed.
EXPECTED RESULT
Some sort of option(s) for adjusting playback speed. Keyboard shortcuts and
menu options would be adequate.
DESIRED RESULT
It would be really nice if I could specify default playback speeds based upon
source directory.
I like to watch most news programs at 1.5x normal speed. It is a lot more
interesting that way.
I like to watch entertainment programs at 1.0x normal speed. I like to see
them the way they were intended.
I like to watch documentaries and political programs at 1.5x normal speed, but
sometimes like to watch it at a slower speed where it is too easy to miss
important information.
It would seem that the most straightforward way to have per directory playback
defaults would be to present a table of directories and default playback speeds
(and possibly a recursive option). Have current directory (".") and home
("$HOME") already specified with a playback speed of 1.0x. Allow users to
change those defaults or to add more.
Add keyboard shortcuts and menu options for faster, slower, and 1.0x speeds.
Options that could be used for those 3 options as keyboard shortcuts:
faster slower 1.0x

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I believe I've covered it adequately.
