Description
Problem
The current audio speed button requires multiple clicks to cycle through speed options (0.5x → 0.75x → 1x → … → 2x → back to 0.5x). This is not user-friendly as users might miss their desired speed and have to click multiple times again.
Suggested Improvement
Replace the current speed toggle button with a dropdown menu. This will allow users to directly select their preferred playback speed without unnecessary cycling.
Benefits
- Better user experience
- Faster selection of playback speed
- Avoids frustration from clicking multiple times
