ANDROID FAQ: How can the playback rate be adjusted in the Android SDK?(Android v4)

You can use the playbackRates object to adjust the playback rate:

Create a playbackRates object.
Use PlayerConfig.Builder() to add the playbackRates object to the PlayerConfig object.

double[] playbackRates = new double[] { 0.5, 1, 2 };

// To setup custom playback rates
PlayerConfig playerConfig = new PlayerConfig.Builder()
			  .playbackRates(playbackRates)
			  .build();
     
getPlayer().setup(playerConfig);
