Hello Kristeen,
Sorry this response is so late. Just catching up to list emails. If
you are talking about iTunes on the computer then there is no built in way to
speed up play back. However, it can be done. Some time ago Esther posted
directions on how to use a script that uses quick time player. I followed her
directions and now I have the ability to set up different speed increases and
use them in iTunes play back. I'm not good with scripts and need to learn how
to use them over again every year or so. Luckily once they are set up they
just seem to keep working. You may want to search the arcives on the
macvisionary list if you are a member there. perhaps someone stronger then me
with script use can post the information for you. But, it is possible.
On the iPhone you can find more controls and a speed up playback option is
there. I think I pressed the Album art button to see more controls.
Lastly the speeding up is not as good on other devices like the NLS book reader
or the Victor Reader Stream so I don't use it as much as I would if the quality
was better.
If this would be of great help to you or others let me know off list or on and
I'll try to find the post with directions. This may take me some time to get
back to you!
