[QUOTE="Smell The Glove, post: 378864, member: 26697"] One of the few things I still haven't found a Mac alternative for when I recently switched was a DVD software player that will play a DVD at 1.5x speed and still maintain audio and readable close caption/subtitles. I'ved used VLC and OS X's players and both will FF, but not without losing the audio or making subtitles very hard to read as they blend together. Without going into lots of specifics, there are occasions where I can watch, but only with subtitles and no audio and there isn't a huge noticeable difference in video slightly sped up. Plus, I can watch through more things faster during those times - nice for those long interludes where little happens on screen. I used to do this wonderfully with CyberPower DVD in Windows (they don't make a Mac version). Does anybody know a player that will actually play at 1.5 speed and make the captions readable and the audio audible when I need it? If not, my alternative would seem to be to just install PowerDVD on my Boot Camp partition and use it for watching DVDs during these times. I'd prefer to just do it in OS X if i can, however.
