Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically adaptive playback speed for media playback. In an embodiment, media data is received, which is associated with multimedia to be rendered at an original capture speed on a multimedia player on a computing device. A content density index value for a particular portion of the multimedia is determined, the content density index value representing a rate of content within the particular portion that a user of the multimedia player has to comprehend. Based on the content density index value for the particular portion, a new speed is determined for rendering the portion of the multimedia. The new speed may be stored associated with the portion of the multimedia for rendering the portion of the multimedia at the new speed that is different from the original speed.
