HD Question About the Text-to-Speech Speed Settings on Fire HD

SquareWheels · 02-19-2013, 06:00 PM

Hi,

I have a Kindle Fire HD. I found the Text-to-Speech speed button and now it seems that all of my books are set to the 1x setting even though I only set one of them.

I want to get all of my books back to the default speed. I have cycled through the options hoping that it would let me get back to default before going back to 1x, but it didn't.

So, how do I get it back to default? Someone on the Kindle boards at Amazon told me 1x is the default, but I don't think it is.

Thanks very much in advance!

1x is normal speed, not slowed down, not sped up. It is the default speed of the TTS voice.

OK, good to know, thanks!

I guess that since the 1x was never there before I ever started trying to adjust the speed, I thought that it wasn't the default.
