I have been given a new requirement that I make the option available to play media files in reverse, and the option to be able to increase/decrease playback speed.
The program with which I am working relies on VideoLan.Net to handle all our media playback needs, so the question I have is this:
Using VideoLan.Net, is it possible to play media backwards, and is it possible to increase/decrease the playback speed?
vlc can not play media in reverse.
With LibVLC it certainly is possible to increase/decrease the playback speed: see libvlc_media_player_set_rate(float rate).
Use e.g 0.5f for half speed, 1.0f to return to normal speed, 2.0f for double speed and so on.
