"Speed Selector"_Add 0.1 Steps_Customize Tool Bar

[VLbug]

Sorry if this Question/Post is in the wrong place, it is my 1st post.
VLAN version 3.0.7.1

Subject = Tools---> Customize Interface ---> Speed Selector.

Question1: Is there a way to edit the file that creates the "speed selector control buttons",
so that pushing the buttons will increment the speed by 0.1 instead of by 0.5?

Question2: What is LUA? Some kind of editing language?

Lua is a programming language https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lua_(programming_language)
It is a tiny helper used in various programs. VLC developers have created/defined a Lua interface for VLC addons - Lua scripts of several types (Extension script like VLSub, Playlist script like YouTube, ...). Then it is easier to add and maintain enhancements.

mederi,
Thanks for the answering.
But I'm having trouble getting the lua file to work.
I read the link/threads and created the "faps.lua" file.
I copied the lua file to the directory, ===> C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\lua\extensions
Then opened VLC - View, but I don't see anything listed there.

My VLC version is 3.0.7.1. Should this lua file work with this version?

Any ideas?

Note: The only other file in that directory is VLSub.luac.

Everything is correct and the script should work. The extension contains a dialog box window with input field for custom step, and 2 buttons to increase/decrease the speed. You can check encoding of the saved script file (ANSI/UTF-8 without BOM) or you can download&extract the script file from WIP collection https://addons.videolan.org/p/1167844/ Try to check file/dir properties (right-click) or try different location: %APPDATA%\VLC\lua\extensions\
There are [] hotkeys for Slower/Faster (fine) with the 0.1 step in VLC.
