Hi @J.Dubs , Welcome to TAC.

I think you’re referring to the “Quick Draw” chord fretting exercises where Tony counts down from 5 to 0 and you have to fret and strum the particular chord by 0. Those are old videos from before the last format change (March 2021). All of the older lessons used to have 3 videos, each at a different speed (in this case they had 3 videos that started the count down at different numbers – 5,3 & 1). In the current format, there is now a speed icon as @Philb is referring to which allows you to change the speed of the video and thus the timing. However, in the case of these “Quick Draw” lessons, the speed icon is not of any help because it doesn’t work out mathematically from the 5 to 3 to 1 counts. So the best thing to do is use the video at normal (1x) speed and wait until the count down reaches 3 and then 1 to start the process of fretting and strumming the chords. These are great exercises for learning to fret chords. I still use it today to practice fretting chords that I’m not familiar with or don’t use often enough and need to be able to transition into quickly.

Good luck and enjoy the journey😎
