Yes exactly, there is never any reason to buffer more than a second.

So is anyone actually working on a feature like this?

So is there any reason why we couldn't just use a fractional number in the advanced 'backwards jump' time? Or better yet, a 'estimated 1 frame' option, even if it isn't always accurate, it would be better than what we have now.

...but some of the time it's right. It just seems like it would be simple to allow users to specify a fractional time step in the 'backwards jump' setting (currently locked to 1 full second). Even IF the video properties are wrong, there usually aren't more than a handful of formats (24fps, 30fps, e...

How do you know the time between frames? In the video properties the fps is displayed. Divide by fps... right? And as for the 'buffering is too expensive' argument - With modern hardware, seeking to any point in a video is nearly instant. So why buffer anything? When you want to step back one frame...

Wouldn't it be a matter of trivial math to seek back to the previous frame? I mean you know where you're at, and you know the time between frames soo... In any case, just seeking back "by a small increment" would be enough for most people. Why can't this extension be fixed to work with hot...

I would love to have this feature as well. I came across this lua extension... http://addons.videolan.org/content/show.php/Previous+frame?content=156396 But the damn thing only works when the dialogue window is open (you cant use the keyboard shortcuts if you're in full screen). It does 'work' thoug...

Tried using the record feature again today... Am I doing something wrong? It seems like when I start recording at a STOPPED position, the actually recording doesn't start when I hit play (there is a time delay). Is there just no way to accurately record short clips from start position A to end posit...

Downloaded the latest klite codec pack, still having trouble. Can anyone confirm the record feature just plain sucks? I mean it's like even when it works, it doesn't start recording at the right time (always a second or two off). Has anyone actually had success using this feature? My wishlist for a ...

I would like to extract small clips (5-10 seconds) from some videos I have (and maintain the same original resolution/quality), but the record button is giving me trouble. I play the video, scrub to the entry point, hit record, then press record again when done. 10% of the time it works, 90% of the ...
