Keyboard shortcuts in Windows Media Player 11

The new interface of Windows Media Player 11 lets you do a lot more with the media player, but what they’ve seemed to have kept hidden from us for a while are the cool little nifty tricks you can do using keyboard shortcuts. These work on Windows Media Player 11 for Windows Vista and Windows XP.

To slow down playback: Ctrl+Shift+S
To speed up playback: Ctrl+Shift+G

    Older versions of Media Player offered simple control of playing speed. CTRL+SHIFT+S AND G only switch to half or double speed. Is it possible to run Media Player at speeds in between half and normal and in between normal and double speed in Version 11?
