Is it possible to change the default playback speed? It would make checking a lot of clips easier if I could see them quickly and play any suspicious ones back at the correct speed.
If there is not a default can anyone identify the code that I need to change to speed up the playback that is used when the video window is viewed?
I am using ZM v 9.16
Thanks
Tony

Re: Default Playback Speed
Hi Tony,
Do you mean playback via streams or via generated MPEG?
If it's the former you can edit zm_html_view_event.php and go to about line 30 where you will see the following code
if ( !isset( $rate ) )
$rate = 1;
if ( !isset( $scale ) )
$scale = 1;
If you change $rate = 1 to $rate = 2 or another value it will replay at that rate. Changing it to $rate = 0 will replay as fast as possible. However bear in mind that this is still limited by bandwidth so on a fast connection it will fly by but over a dial-up it may be slower than realtime. Reducing the size by half by changing $scale = 1 to $scale = -2 will also help speed things up.
Cheers,
Phil,
