Video Speed
Change the playback speed of a video from slow motion to fast forward with precise speed multiplier control. Audio pitch can be preserved or shifted naturally with the speed change. All processing runs locally on your self-hosted server.
Features
- Precise speed multiplier from 0.25x slow motion to 4x fast forward
- Audio pitch correction to maintain natural voice at altered speeds
- Option to discard audio entirely for pure visual speed changes
- Smooth frame timing with no dropped frames or stuttering
- Preserves video quality and resolution regardless of speed change
What you can do
- Creating a 2x speed version of a long tutorial to produce a quick-overview highlight reel
- Slowing down a sports replay to analyze a specific moment in detail
- Producing time-lapse videos from real-time recordings of cooking, drawing, or building
- Adjusting interview footage speed to fit a specific runtime for a documentary edit
Self-hosted. Your files never leave your network.

Frequently asked questions
- Does changing speed affect audio pitch?
- By default, audio pitch is preserved so voices sound natural even at different speeds. You can also let pitch shift naturally or remove audio entirely. Processing runs on your self-hosted SnapOtter server.
- What speed range is supported?
- You can set speeds from 0.25x (quarter speed) to 4x (quadruple speed). Both acceleration and deceleration maintain smooth playback. All processing happens locally on your self-hosted instance.
- Can I speed up just a section of the video?
- This tool applies a uniform speed change to the entire video. To speed up a specific section, trim that segment first and then change its speed. Both tools run locally on your self-hosted server.
