Hi Rich,
I agree with you about the audio quality when speeding up a book. I got one
up to 200 and the sound was very choppy, . It sound had static in it the
faster it got. I also didn't see a way to slow the speech down.
I'm using the braille plus.

Subject: [icon-discuss] Speeding up an NLS book
I am thrilled to be able to read NLS books on my Icon. I received
my authorization from Levelstar and downloaded the key. I have successfully
downloaded my first NLS book, and after moving it to the correct folder, it
was unpacked when I opened my bookshelf. However, I must tell you that
speeding up a book even a little degrades the audio quality substantially.
You hear an effect that makes one believe that the narrator is underwater.
For anyone who has a Victor Reader Stream, you will notice a big difference,
and unfortunately, it is not good. I don't know if Levelstar can address
this garbled sound in a future release, but I hope perhaps they can. When I
speed up a book on the Victor Reader Stream, it is seamless.
