How exactly do I change the speed of the video streams?

However, a pause and then restarting won't fix it. Stopping the show 
and then restarting it won't fix it - it takes a soft reboot.

don't think so.

I did that back in the spring. Didn't make any difference...

So what are good settings? I've tweaked mine so many times no idea 
what the defaults are any more. . .
