Additional Video Preview Window Buttons

Completed

When using the Preview window to navigate to a specific moment in a video to make an IN or OUT point, the 10 seconds forward or 10 seconds backward buttons make too big of a jump for what I am trying to do. Could additional buttons be added to go forwards or backwards in a smaller increment, perhaps frame by frame?

  That’s a great suggestion. We definitely want to keep the UI clean, so maybe adding modifier key behavior (like holding Shift to jump just 1 second) is an interesting compromise. We’ll share this with the dev team and see if we can implement that behavior without cluttering the interface. Would that solve your use case, or would you still need frame-by-frame control?

  Thanks Grant G. 
  Yes, A 1 Second option would be useful. Thank You!

  Tyler Strausbaugh 7.8 released today has this request :-)
  
  🎯 Improved Video Trimming Controls
  Fine-tune your edits with new keyboard shortcuts in the preview window:
      •    Hold Shift + click skip → jump 1 second
      •    Hold Ctrl / Command + click skip → move frame-by-frame

  Much easier to dial in exact IN/OUT points 👍
