Public bug reported: Binary package hint: totem
The preferences menu in Totem Movie Player should allow you to configure "skip-durations", meaning the amount of time that the movie player skips forward and backward upon hitting the right and left arrow buttons (on the keyboard <for me>). I watch a lot of pool videos, and after a person shoots a good shot, I want to watch it again, but find that the Totem movie player skips too far back, and I have to re-watch the player "think about the shot" (when all I really want to see is the shot itself). Also, when a player is thinking, I'd like to skip forward to the shot itself. But again, Totem movie player skips too far ahead, and I miss seeing the shot altogether. You're never going to have defaults that please everyone, but the preferences menu should be a place that each person can set this duration to their liking. I've been missing this feature for some time, but just now decided to document it here. ** Affects: totem (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Binary package hint: totem The preferences menu in Totem Movie Player should allow you to configure "skip-durations", meaning the amount of time that the movie player skips forward and backward upon hitting the right and left arrow buttons (on the keyboard <for me>).
