Re: ACTION-238 Revise guidelines 4.9.6 (revised)

Hi Mark,

Nice and straightforward. Just a few tweaks added in ALL CAPS:

The user can adjust THE playback rate of prerecorded AUDIO AND/OR VIDEO 
content, such that all of the following are true (Level A):

- THE USER SHOULD BE ABLE TO ADJUST the playback rate of the recorded 
audio and/or video tracks TO between 50% and 250% of real time.

- PRErecorded speech, whose playback rate has been adjusted by the user,
should maintain pitch in order to prevent degradation of the speech
quality.

- Audio and video tracks remain synchronized across the FULL RANGE OF 
playback RATES.

- The UA should provide a function that resets the playback rate to
normal (100%).


Cheers,
Jan
