Feature description

If the playback speed is < 1, I would like the double tap "Fast-forward/-rewind seek duration" interval to be bound to the playback speed, rather than defined intervals like 5s, 10s, 15s, etc.

I propose interval duration = playback speed * 1s

This means at 0.2 playback speed, the interval is +/- 0.2s.

Why do you want this feature?

When I am watching skateboarding videos in slow-motion, I waste a bunch of time because 5s being the lowest supported skip forward/backward interval is too large.

Additional information

Thank you
