I forgot to add:
In VLC the function I am after is located on menu:
Playback/Speed
where there are 5 selections to make:
Faster, Faster(fine), Normal speed, Slower(fine), Slower

In VLC there is a speed-button on the bottom containing 4 corner marks
and when clicked the video area fills the screen, return to normal by
Esc.

When using PasLibVlc I have not found much in the way of documentation
so I have used a simple demo and worked my way from there.
