Rewind Video and/or set play back position

Questions about Thunkable

Hi, sorry if this is obvious, there don’t seem to be many posts on video playback

I can’t find a way to rewind/reset a video or anything in blocks so once a video gets to the end the user has to drag the slider all the way back or keep pressing the rewind button until they get to the start. This is really tricky to do on a small phone and not at all obvious from a UI perspective.

There also doesn’t seem to be any way to get or set the play back position - is that correct?

I have a placeholder solution, I’ve added an additional button that sets the video object’s media asset to a blank image, waits 1 second (the wait seems to be necessary) and then sets the video object back to the actual video URL. This effectively sets the play back position to the start but it’s really clunky.

Any tips greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hello @swimboss285div1j :wave:
Thank you for sharing your observation and workaround!
At the moment, I am not aware of an alternative way to do that.
You can find all the details about the video component here: Video Component - Thunkable Docs
