Playback rate and Minnie Mouse syndrome

[rseiler]

There must be a thread on this, but I'm unable to find it. Can Bsplayer's Playback rate be increased without making speech sound like Minnie Mouse? VLC can do this, so it's possible.

There are several WinAmp2 DSP plugins to do this.
(e.g.: Chronotron, PaceMaker, Slow Me Down).
However I've personally never used these.
The one I did use though is this one: Fourier Pitch/tempo Control.
It was OK for my needs.

There you can select if Winamp plugins should be enabled/supported.
Also (in the south-east quarter) you can select the directory/folder where you saved your WinAmp2 plugins.
Finally you can select the plugin to be used and (with an appropriate media-file loaded in BS.Player!) you can Load it and access and set the plugin's properties, using the button "Config".
Further ..
while playing a file, you can also access the active DSP plugin and set its properties through rightclick > Audio > DSP plugin > etc.
Enjoy!
