Abstract
Systems and methods for intelligent playback of media content may include an intelligent media playback system that, in response to determining the speech tempo in audio content by measuring syllable density of speech in the audio content, automatically adjusts a playback speed of the audio content as the audio content is being played based on the determined speech tempo. In some embodiments, the system may automatically and dynamically adjust the playback speed to result in a desired target speech tempo. In addition, the system may determine whether to automatically adjust playback speed of the audio content, as the media is being played, based on the detected speech tempo of the speech in the audio content and the determined type of content of media. Such automatic adjustments in playback speed result in more efficient playback of the audio content.
