Description

Describe your suggested feature

Currently users cannot set the "Player seek amount" to a period of time that isn't 30 seconds if the app is in the TV layout. If you go to the Player options there will be a setting to change the "Player seek amount" to a period of time that isn't 30 seconds but that doesn't affect the "Player seek amount" at all because media will still only seek 30 seconds before or after the point you are seeking from.

Other details

Build: Pre-release, Version 3.1.3
OS: Android 10 (Android TV)

Research direction

Start by locating the Android TV layout's Player options and the code handling the Player seek amount. Trace why the configured value is ignored in TV layout mode. Done means selecting a value other than 30 seconds changes both backward and forward media seeking on Android TV.
