Steps to reproduce:

I watch and listen media files using the embedded player. At some points of time I rewind and fast forward the playback using the keyboard hotkeys (←,→).



Actual results:

The playback point is placed far off the desired time; there's no way for accurate navigation by the play file.

For example, I listen a lecture and want to repeat what the lecturer just said. I rewind the playback using the “left” key and find myself at the start of the lecture part. When then I fast forward the playback, the playback point is placed ahead the time I interrupt listening.


Expected results:

There are should be at least 3 hotkeys to control the playback in regard of rewinding and fast forwarding, for short, medium and long moving (e. g. “←,→", “ctrl+←,→”, “shift+←,→”).

There are should be configuration options to allow users to fine tune time steps according to their preferences.
