provide one or more affordances to a user, the affordances each being configured or configurable to provide one or more inputs to at least one operation executed or executable by the processing unit of the electronic device;
change a desired playback speed on the graphical interface of the video being displayed from the normal playing speed to a modified playing speed in response to at least one of the inputs received by the graphical user interface,
wherein the graphical user interface provides at least one first affordance configured or configurable to receive a touch input changing the desired playback speed among a plurality of selectable playback speeds,
wherein the graphical user interface further includes a second affordance configured or configurable to provide a touch input to the processing unit to initiate or stop a recording operation of the video, and
wherein the first and second affordances are operable together such that a user can initiate recording by a touch and hold with a finger, and the user can change the desired playback speed using the finger while maintaining the touch to continue the recording;
wherein at least one of the first affordance and the second affordance is in part arranged over the video display region;
wherein the graphical user interface further includes a third affordance usable in determining a change in zoom factor of the received video data; and
wherein the first and third affordances are arranged such that the user can by a single movement simultaneous change the desired playback speed and the zoom factor by sliding the finger side-to-side and up and/or down over the video display region.
