# playbackSpeed

> Factor by which the basic playback rate will be multiplied.

## Definition

* **Type:** Property
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine.Video](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/video.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.VideoModule

```csharp
public float playbackSpeed { get; set; }
```

### Remarks

Only works if [\_canSetPlaybackSpeed](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/video/videoplayer/cansetplaybackspeed.md) is `true`. Setting this to 2.0 will play the clip twice as fast as its normal speed. Support for negative values is platform dependent.
