        Hi.

        I wish Podbird had the ability to play at faster speeds, such as 1.5, 1.75, etc.

        I listen to a lot of podcasts and find that most are fine at 1.5 speed - I can get through more also that way.

        Is there an alternative or a workaround in Podbird?

        Thanks.

          Audio apps uses media hub to play audio (even with screen off).
          To any app be able to speed reproduction this must me fixed: https://github.com/ubports/qtubuntu-media/issues/1

            There was a recent bug wherein the playback is too fast. I wonder what caused it and if it can be used for this feature. Bug turned feature story 😄

              If I remember correctly, that bug affected only pinephone, in code was for some reason playback speed set to x3 https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~michael-sheldon/podbird/trunk/revision/204 and almost no phone was affected with that

                Hi danqo6. I'm using a FP2.
