Is There An Application To Speed Up A Song?
 

Hi, Dunno if you know this phone... but had a phone before called "FlySLT100". There was a basic music player but had fast forward/rewind buttons, so basically i could spped up and slow down a song (like WMP) I used to use it all the time because it was funny and i could rap to my favourite songs faster :p lol. Was just wondering if anyone knows of anything about that on the Nokia N900. Cheers :)

You can use mplayer:

Add the "-speed 2" option to play the song twice as fast
Add the "-af scaletempo" option if it sounds too high-pitched
Add the "-af karaoke" option to remove the voice from the song

a chipmunkifier on your own voice when calling people would be cool.

This would be useful when listening to podcasts, or audio books, or other spoken word stuff, to get through it quicker, as long as the pitch wasn't changed.

Here is how to do it from the command line. A gui surely exists, but I don't know any.

First, install "MPlayer Movie Player" from the multimedia section in the application manager.

Second, open the "X Terminal" application.

Create a control channel for mplayer:

Then you can run mplayer, and connect it to the control channel:

While the song is playing, you can control the speed from another terminal by sending the speed_incr command to the control channel:
