Hi. I want to use Wowza player to provide VOD(hls).

Then, I need to control playbackRate in html5(video tag).

I know Wowza player uses Video tag in chrome or ie11 (win10?).

(Other ie version uses flash)

So I’m not thinking about control speed in flash.

I only want to control VOD speed in html5 video tag.

Is there any special way?

No brother, there is no way to that at current. If there is any way I find that I will definitely tell you. You can also contact Wowza through Gmail and if you are having any problem in contacting them through Gmail then you [contact Gmail](https://gmailhelp.net/) for the issue faced by you while sending the email.
