New playback UI control issues

I’ve been really trying to get along with the new Playback UI, but a couple of things are really starting to bug me now.

  1. I often use the right click on the pad to skip forward in 10 second increments through credits at the beginning of TV shows, or if I’ve been out of the room and need to go back a little. However since v8 when clicking this button say 3 or 4 times in short succession now fast forwards, or rewinds way further than i want. Is it possible to turn off this FF feature, as it’s driving me nuts?

  2. When getting to the end of a show, I click the ‘<‘ button to go back to the main page, before it starts the next episode. But quite often I need to click 2 or 3 times to get it to come back, and most times the next episodes starts and I then have to click out of it.

I’m experiencing the same. I have to swipe up and down to get the skip 10 sec forward/backward working again. You also see, when it doesn’t work, the time greyed out.

@james this may need adding to the 8.0.x bugs as it’s clearly not just me. Happy to send a diagnostic code next time it happens.

What type of remote are you using?

Do you have either the ‘Chapter Controls’ option enabled or a longer Forward/Backward Skip time set in Infuse > Settings > Playback?

@James no chapter controls are off and default skip time of 10 seconds. I’m using the standard Siri Remote that comes with the latest Apple TV with Swipe and click enabled as per the default settings.

@James I’ve figured it out, if you ever so slightly long press when clicking for the 10 second skip it switches to fast forward. That long press recognition needs increasing, it’s literally a split second longer than clicking it.

Clicking left or right to skip 10 seconds multiple times is still an issue. Still finding it going in to FF mode and skips minutes in instead of seconds.
