adjustable playback speed

Anton

Hello,

I wonder if there is any possibility to make the playback speed of music files (.mp3 or otherwise) faster. I would like to listen to podcasts at faster playback speeds (1,25 or 1,5). Even my KaiOs phone is able to to this!

Besides that, Ubuntu Touch works like a charm on my FairPhone 3! Very happy with it!

Thanks!

@Anton Which app do you use? Podphoenix?
Unfortunately, the system doesn't support playback rate yet however there's already a work on this and we'll just wait for it to land and it'll be trivial to add this in apps.

It should be relatively easy with a script using ffmpeg, either in Libertine or bundled in an app.
The following command should work:

ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -filter:a "atempo=1.5" output.mp3

Thanks you so much! It worked!

For anyone interested. I first installed ffmeg in the Libertine client. Looked for the mp3 file in the folder and used the following script to run the script in the libertine container:
libertine-lauch -i CONTAINER-IDENTIFIER ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -filter:a "atempo=1.5" output.mp3

Really nice! And because of this I begin slowly exploring the power of Libertine!
