Re: ACTION-238 Revise guidelines 4.9.6 (revised)

Thanks go to Jim also, who helped in the re-edit.  Your suggested
changes are great. Thanks.

The proposal now stands as:

4.9.6 Change Rate of Time-based Media

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%).
