videos play too fast on ipad - sounds like super high speed mini mouse

We just bought the ipad and when we play videos on vimeo or youtube they play at an ultra high speed like the fps is messed up - it sounds like a record being played too fast

Is this our ipad or a setting - we are worried because we do not see the problem listed anywhere else.

Thanks!

Have your rebooted/restarted your iPad? you do that by pressing the Home and power/sleep button at the same time until the slider to power off the iPad appears. Slide the slider and when screen activity stops depress the two buttons again until the Apple logo appears. When the iPad completes rebooting try again to see if that solved your problem.

If it makes you feel any better, I too saw that right after buying my iPad 2 months ago, and maybe once since then. It really freaked me out the first time, since I thought I got a bum unit. I think I just did a full power down (hold the power switch, swipe the red Off button) and it was all better upon restart. One of life's little mysteries.
