The iPhone’s video sub-application (it is technically part of the iPod application) contains everything you’d expect from a solid video player. By tapping on the screen, you get a pop-up on the bottom and top of the screen that allows you to pause, play, fast-forward, or rewind the video, to adjust the volume, to change how far into the video you are, to adjust the aspect ratio, and to close the video. These are really the standard features that just about every video player has (except maybe the the aspect ratio), but there are some more lesser known tricks hidden within the video player.
One of these features is the ability to play a video forward in slow motion. To do this, pause the video and then press down on and hold onto the fast-forward button. This will play the video in slow motion, and even includes the slowed down sound. Oddly, I could not find any way to play a video in slow motion in reverse.
Like most non-phone-related iPhone features, I assume this works on the iPod Touch, but if anyone could confirm that, it would be great.

Huh. Wouldn't that just be regular speed? :) April 20th, 2008 at 8:22 am
