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.
