[Feature Request] - playback speed increase through post-processing of downloads #270

I too have a similar use case to you - downloading podcasts to upload to my smartwatch for running. The only thing is, my watch doesn't allow any increase in playback speed once the file is transferred over, so currently I have some scripts which use ffmpeg to speed up the files that land on disk, eg:

ffmpeg -loglevel error -i $h -filter:a "atempo=1.3" -b:a 80k $dir/podcast.mp3

Thoughts on adding a post-processing hook to do something similar? :-)
