I would like to have the option to play the versions back at a faster speed when necessary. Default is regular speed but have some options for 2x, 3x’s faster. like in youtube.

Hey heazim,

Thanks for posting, great feedback. We’ve created an internal product ticket regarding this, and we’ll take a look at this potential feature. Hopefully this is something we can address in an upcoming release.

Cheers
