Will PS5 play DVD / Blu-ray at 1.5x speed with audio?

Question

My PS3 does a neat trick that my other DVD players can't: it can play back DVD or Blu-ray discs at 1.5x speed with (sped up) audio. This thread at Reddit seems to imply the PS4 has the same feature.

What about the PS5? Would an owner confirm or deny, please?

I've only tried this with a Blu-ray movie but I can confirm that the PS5 lets you watch it in 1.5x speed. You have to press the R2 trigger to speed up the movie, and the next step-up is 10x speed.

@webniraj, with audio, are you sure? – Mark Knutsen Nov 27 '20 at 20:19
@MarkKnutsen Yes, if you watch on 1.5x speed, it will play with sped up audio on both Blu-Ray and DVD (I tried it with both). All other fast forward or backward options play without audio. – Kodama Nov 28 '20 at 16:48
Yep, 1.5x with audio. – Niraj Shah Nov 28 '20 at 21:34
