I'm loving this plugin so far, and have successfully gotten it working on my web and mobile clients. However, when I'm using Chrome to play a video on my Chromecast, the scrubbing previews don't show up, despite them showing up everywhere else. Is there something I need to do differently, or is this possibly a feature that can be added?

I believe that, in order to support this, one would have to mess with the fast forward button of the web player and the Chromecast app to add the "carusel" of images while fast forwardng. All of this, if you imagine a Netflix-like use case where you press fast forward (on the remote control) and:

  • An overlay appears over the whole video,
  • the carousel of images (BIF files, in this case) appear in the bottom part of the screen,
  • and the carousel starts moving forward.

All of this also applies for rewind.

I don't have a chromecast so I'm not sure if there would be any way for me to implement/test this. Plus, my goal right now is looking at getting this implemented officially so hopefully separate teams with more specialized knowledge (i.e. jellyfin-web) could implement features like this if it's feasible.
