The VideoLAN Forums

Hello,
on the previous version there were 2 buttons alongside the pause - to forward / rewind with 10 seconds (or dunno if it could be changed to another value).\

I personally found these buttons extremely useful for fine-tuning the place of the video where I want to go, or just to rewind quickly to hear the last sentence which I didn't understood or missed for some reason, or to skip the intro theme.

But now the only way to navigate is the scroll-bar, which extremely unprecise, even on a wide screen like my 1520.
I don't even want to imagine what it is for someone trying the rewind 10 seconds in a screen below 4". You go back and forth in intervals of several minutes, which is very annoying.


Can you please return the buttons to the way they were before the 1.3.3.7 update?
And how could someone even imagine that leaving only the scroll for navigation is a good idea?

I have also a 1520 and really don't get this design choice, it's pretty hard now to skip intros and if you want to rewind, you always go to far back.

OK. The gestures should allow 10sec seek.

Well, from what I see in the new version the gestures also don't work - before I could swipe left or right to jump some time, but now even that is not working.
Additionally - the gestures are not really precise, the time you jump varies quite a lot. It is good to have gestures, but they can not replace the normal exact buttons.

IMO
1.Slide-bar for big jumps
2. Gestures for medium INACCURATE jumps (1-2 minutes)
3. Buttons to jump 10 (or 20 or 30 seconds if there is an option to set the jump length) for fine tuning. I personaly prefer 10 secs and have absolutely no problem with pushing the button even 6 times if I have to skip a minute, it is still faster to get the the precise time I have to go than any other method.

Currently we have only the slide-bar, while in previous version we had all 3. IMO Big mistake to remove the other 2 options.

I checked on my Lumia and my Surface. The buttons are not there and neither do the gestures work.

Furthermore, the controls seems to be quite buggy, sometimes not auto hiding or showing at all.

Lastly, the window title is always there on my RT, so fullscreen is not "full."

None of these issues existed in the previous version.
