Two hours covers most feature films, long conference talks and multi-part course modules. At 2x it fits into 1 hour. 2x halves the runtime. It is great for review, recaps and slow speakers, but harder for brand-new, technical material.
Only have less time than that? Use the speed needed calculator to find the exact speed that fits your window, or paste a link into the YouTube playlist length calculator to total a whole course.
