Can't fast forward unless pausing

[dannicroax 4]

Hey team

When using Emby on iOS I can't fastforward by dragging the slider unless I pause, then move the slider and then un-pause. An annoying workaround but something that should be a pretty standard working function. What gives?

Hi, it seems to be working just fine in my testing. What version of iOS?

Hey Luke

 

I'm using iOS 17.0.3 and Emby v2.2.13. I'm attaching a video to show what happens. After trying to skip a few times I get thrown back to the menu and Emby marks the episode as watched. This happens on every show and movie I've tried.

HI, can you please try Emby for iOS 2.2.14 and let us know how that compares? Thanks.

Hi Luke

I can confirm this works perfectly after updating! Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Luke - I'd like to re-open this thread since this still seems to be an issue. Depending on media (different TV episodes and movies) I can sometime use the 10 sec skip button and sometimes not, in other media files it doesn't work at all and in a few of them it works fine. Same with fast forwarding by dragging my finger on the slider - it just jumps back like in the video I previously sent. I've also confirmed this for other users on my Emby server with different kind of iPhones but all using the same version of Emby.

How can we take this forward? This is really messing up the user experience.
