Customizable duration for the pop-up dialog box regarding "Resume from last position"

Postby Mister Floppy » 09 Jul 2016 11:42

Hello,

it would be great if you could add a customizable duration for the pop-up dialog box regarding "Resume from last position" with videos that have been played previously, as sometimes my remote control doesn't behave reliably and sends the simulated mouse click/hotkey to the button of the small window at the top asking if you would like to resume from the last position when it has already disappeared...

Thank you in advance!

Greetings,

Mister Floppy

You know you can set it to auto-resume, right?

Yeah, I know that, but I'd rather prefer being asked individually, because from time to time I don't want to use this feature, and how I'm supposed to start a video easily from the beginning again using my remote control, when this option is set to "always auto-resume"?

Come on, I don't think it is sooo difficult to add a customizable input field for the duration, isn't it? :-)

No, but more options means more translations and more things to maintain.
