Currently, I cannot navigate videos with precision using the video player.  
I inspect videos a lot for QA analysis, and these videos frequently have fast-moving elements, so I often need to pause and look for specific moments.

Can you please give us the ability to press a key and move forward or backward by individual frames?

Fundamentally, playing a video isn’t just about seeing things change with time, it’s also about navigating time. Precision-navigation is a fundamental part of the experience. 🙏🏻 Thanks so much for your help!
