Controls.fastForward

The fastForward method starts fast play of the media item in the forward direction.

Syntax

player.controls.fastForward()

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Return Values

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

The fastForward method plays the clip back at five times the normal speed. Invoking fastForward changes the Settings.rate property to 5.0. If rate is subsequently changed, or if play or stop is called, Windows Media Player will cease fast forwarding.

The fastForward method does not work for audio files, live broadcasts, and certain media file types. To determine whether you can fast forward in a clip, call isAvailable(“FastForward”).
