Rewind/Fast-Forward Scrub Behavior

[jwitow]

Does Moonfin on Roku support gradually scrubbing through a video during playback with rewind and fast-forward buttons, the way most players do? For some reasons when I hit rewind or fast-forward it just bumps it like 2 seconds and continues playing. Is this intended behavior or am I missing something I should know?

Hello, this is the intended behaviour for fast-forward and rewind buttons.

I see. May I ask if there's a reason for this? Is it a Roku limitation? It seems like an oversight, given that multi-speed fast-forward and scrubbing is pretty standard on media players. Not complaining, just wondering if it's a system limitation or what.

You're right to question this. Looking at the commit history I can see that the official app had this functionality, but it was removed to align with the core Moonfin app (88fd083).

However, the core app does indeed support scrubbing. This must have changed since this commit was made.

If you could, would you mind creating a feature request for this?

Done. Thanks for answering me here, looking into it, and suggesting I made the feature request!
