  Description

The default value is 100, as a percentage of the standard rate of play. A value of 50 means the music is playing at half the normal speed where 200 will play the music twice as fast. Set music speed does not work with CD devices, such as music CD"s played using the music commands, as the operation of the CD player is through limited set of Multimedia Control Interface commands via the operating system. Be aware that some media codecs limit your ability to alter the speed, as the media does not contain accurate seek data for this functionality, such as some forms of MP3 music files.
