I wonder, is it possible to slow down shows for those of us trying to learn a new language who have not yet reached 1X fluency? Assuming it’s technically feasible, does it help? I’ll have to try that.
Yep, that works. See uncle post—usually I speed things up, but for hard-to-understand shows I’ve found that slowing them down gives me more time to correlate subs and audio—or to try comprehending the audio without subs, at that.

Very interesting idea, hadn’t thought of thought. You can technically slow down shows in VLC by pressing the—key, it slows to 0.67X speed I believe.
Please let us know what you find, I may try it out myself for practicing Spanish.
