Overview Description: When the desktop langauage is RTL (like Persian, Arabic, etc.), the scroll is start from right and go to left (that is true), but keyboard shortcuts are reversd. I must press righ arrow to seek forward (in RTL, the scroll is right to left too, and forward is left, not right)

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open celluloid with a RTL language like Persian or Arabic. export LANG=fa_IR; celluloid
  2. open a media.
  3. try using keyboard shortcut to seeking media forward and backward.

Actual Results: When pressing left arrow, it seeks backward.

Expected Results: It must seek forward.

Version: 0.20

Additional informations: I use Debian Unstable with GNOME 42 on Wayland session.

As a workaround, you can remap the keys using an input config file:

RIGHT no-osd seek -10
LEFT no-osd seek 10

Thank you. That's a good temporary solution.
