Disproportionate skips are a very easy way to navigate clips. If you're trying to get to a specific thing, you skip forward until you pass it, then you have the finer grained control skipping back to get closer to the desired spot. With a proportionate 60 second skip, at best you could get within 60 seconds of the desired point without having to remember whether you want to use shift-arrow or control-arrow for the finer grained control. Many commercial DVRs are configured with disproportionate skips today for exactly this reason. -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
