<!--- Provide a general summary of the feature in the Title above -->
Feature Request 🛍️
Add keyboard shortcuts:
J
: decrease playback speed by 1x
K
: stop playback at playhead
L
: increase playback speed by 1x
Maximum playback speed is usually 3–4x (reverse or forward).
Pressing K
will immediately stop playback. Pressing K
again will NOT start playback again (this is different from the Space
key).
Test it out in Quicktime Player!
Use Case
Most major video editing suites have the JKL playback keyboard shortcuts. It would be nice to have them in the Preview. :)
Possible Solution
Maybe skip the fast-forward/fast-backward aspect of the feature if that's hard to implement.
