I woke up earlier than usual this morning, so I decided play a bit. I
tried changing speed with MPC and I had no problems with some MPEG4
AVIs. Of course, the voice changed in pitch with the increased sound.
If you have problems then perhaps there is something different in your
files.

I also tried Zoomplayer briefly, and, although I get sound when I play
in slow motion, I haven't managed same for playing at a faster speed.
There are many, many options in ZP, and I am guessing that one of them
would enable sound on fast playback.
