playrate & templateimage

[Peter Bogdanoff]

I’ve just tried LC 9.6.6 in Windows and playrate functions as 0 = stopped or > 0 = playing normal rate. Tested by playing a wmv and a mp3. Entering in a positive number other than 1 causes it to pause for a second or two then start playing at normal speed.

Mac does do the “variable speed” with both mov and mp3.
