VARIABLE RATE MEDIA PLAYBACK METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES WITH TOUCH INTERFACES

摘要

In some embodiments, an electronic device with a touch interface detects one or more user gestures that correspond to instructions to vary the playback speed of a media file that is being played on the device. In response, the device initiates a variable rate scan through the media file, forward or backward. The touch interface can be a touch screen or touch pad.
