Fast forward/backward on long press video sides

[ThigSchuch]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's not related to a problem, but an alternative to skip parts of the video.

Describe the solution you'd like
Use the same behavior of Telegram's video player when you long press right for fast forward or left for fast backward.
Video speeds changes to 2x apparently.

It's more precise when you jump 10~20 seconds and want go backward just a few seconds.
You can fast forward but still can see what is happening, and you need to change speed and reset speed many times.

I agree this would be nice, but I'm limited by the capabilities of the video library I'm using.

This video library is weak when it comes to seeking and changing speed. For example, changing speed is only possible for videos with an audio track, and changing speed restarts playing from the previous key frame, so it wouldn't be a smooth experience like the one you know.

If I find a better video library that can do what you suggest, I'd gladly implement it, but as it is I don't think I can.

I've changed the video engine in mid 2023, and recently that engine got even better with regards to video seeking.

I would likely handle long pressing on left/right sides (not edges). Need to check whether it's compatible with the vertical drag gestures to change volume & brightness.
