Hello, I'm trying to set the up/down arrows on the physical keyboard to skip (or seek, I don't care which) video forward/back by 30 seconds. It is defaulting to 10 minutes and I cannot figure out how to change it. 

I've been trying suggestions in the Kodi Wiki (e.g. creating and making various modifications to the advancedsettings.xml file, and changing the 'skip steps' in Settings -> Player -> Videos to just -10 seconds, 10 seconds, -30 seconds, 30 seconds) but I can't seem to change the skip time for the up/down arrows - no matter what I do, they skip forward or back 10 minutes. 

Running Kodi 21.1 for macOS Sequoia 15.1.1

I've spend a couple hours trying to figure this out, looking on these forums and the wiki, and keep coming up short. Any assistance would be very much appreciated!

up/down also seeks chapters and chapters take precedence, does your video have chapters every 10m? https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...#L377-L378

you need to change the up/down to do BigStepForward/BigStepBack only by changing the keymap to avoid that https://kodi.wiki/view/Keymap

I am using EDL's to setup a chapter list (intro skipping)

Code:

0 215 2

However if this doesn't work with the remote for chapter seeking. the GUI buttons works for next and back and seek to chapter marker specified in the EDL. Is this a bug? happens on Linux and on Android. Other files with chapters in the file seek fine.

ok, i guess that's good?

how does it help this user trying to setup skipping +/- 30s via up/down arrows though?
