Entropic — information-driven variable-rate media playback

Entropic is a tool that dynamically adjusts the playback speed of audio or video content based on its information density, speeding through repetitive or predictable segments and slowing down for complex or novel parts. It is designed for researchers, students, and professionals who consume long-form media like lectures or podcasts, aiming to save time without sacrificing comprehension. The project is interesting because it applies information theory to media consumption, offering a more intelligent and context-aware alternative to simple constant-speed playback.
