    So I've noticed that:

    1. There is no longer an A/V control panel under "Window" or wherever it formally was, and;

    2. Two-fingered scrolling on the touchpad speeds up playback without changing pitch, but as soon as I lift my fingers, 1.0x playback resumes.

    Looking to get through some videos at a faster rate. How can I make 1.5x stick? I know QT on Windows can do this easily.

    many of the features on older quicktime versions are not available yet, if ever. your best bet is to go back and install an older version until they update X.
