Adjust skip forward/backward seek times

If there are changes to adjust skip duration, it will be done universally across platforms, isn’t it?

Because my post was written for all platforms, which was moved here to this thread.

Yes please. Also an option to adjust between different time skips i.e. 5, 10, or 30 seconds.

I would love an option to configure skip backward to 5 seconds, especially on the macOS app. 5 seconds backward is what the Netflix web player does by default, and it’s also how I configured it in VLC.

10 seconds may be an okay default, but is way too long for “what did he just say” situations IMO. 5 seconds is best.

Can’t wait for this feature to be implemented.

Any update on this ? Guys please it’s essential for every player. Fixed 30s skip on macos is way too long.

As a new Infuse Pro user, I was surprised to see 10 secs only on both forward and back skips.

Hopefully we can get some more visibility on this, and some customization in the future :slight_smile:

Ugh, same here. I use the backward button very liberally to repeat portions of dialogues with VLC since i have it configured to 2 seconds so i repeat what was just said, but here i have to weight if its worth it to watch like extra 10 secs or not and often I just keep playing.

Wish the duration was customizable. Should be easy enough to add in, its literally just an extra text box to read in an integer and replace the default in the existing function(s).

They could prolly do it in like 5 mins

I like the way Kodi does it where it increases in steps…
-10min,-5min, -3min,-1min,-30sec,-10sec,-5sec,0,+5sec,+10sec,+30sec,+1min,+3min,+5min,+10min

So if you click forward once, it will increase by 5 seconds. Twice and it’ll increase by 10 and so on, moving up as you go. It does add a small (eg. 500ms) lag to the press but works very well. In Kodi you can also remove some of the steps if you want… so if you remove the +5sec and +10sec then on the first press forward, it’ll jump +30sec each time.

But personally if it was -10 on back and +30 on forward, I’d be pretty happy with that. This wouldn’t help with your -2sec issue though @jumbomumbo3232

Was just about to post asking this.

I prefer 5 sec skip time, not 10, for both functions.

Would like to see this option added, or better yet, make them user settable.

A user should be able to set the skip forward and backward settings to their own values.
The up down arrows could be also used to set longer skip forward and backward settings.
Surely this isn’t too hard to program?

please, give us the possibility to change the amount of seconds for the left and right arrows. 15 seconds is too much when you’ve just checked your phone or anything quicker.

I moved your post to a currently running suggestion for that feature.

thanks!

Current seed time 15s too long, would like to see the ability to adjust the seed time.

Currently on Mac, the left/right arrow keys will jump forward/backward for 15 seconds. Can we add options to customize the duration? And if possible, maybe more shortcuts are welcome, e.g. small jumps, medium jumps, big jumps, etc.

where is the latest firmware and software versions change log page?

why is this not a main link on the general or announcements page.

will save 100000 questions to support department if clearly published

Skip forward/backward 15 second is really inconvenient for me.

Sometimes I just missed hearing a few words so need to skip back 5 seconds to replay.

The ones I use, like, INNA, Youtube and Netflix Web players all use 5 second to skip backward/forward.

I don’t know why infuse chose to be different.

Push the left/right arrow 3 times if someone needs 15 seconds. However default 15 seconds won’t work for 5 seconds.

Hopefully you can hear my request.

Oh, I am on MacOS.
