By default, MPC-HC uses WASAPI or internal audio renderer that preserves pitch. If voices sound weird when sped up:
| Action | Shortcut | | :--- | :--- | | | Up Arrow | | Slow Down | Down Arrow | | Normal Speed | Ctrl + Down Arrow | | Frame Forward | Right Arrow | | Frame Backward | Left Arrow |
When you speed up video in many players, the audio pitch rises, making voices sound like chipmunks. MPC-HC has a built-in audio tuner that attempts to preserve the pitch, allowing you to listen to speech even at 1.5x or 2.0x speeds.
Our proposed approach combines the strengths of both CPU and GPU architectures to accelerate MPC computations. The framework consists of:
