Go to next/previous frame keyboard shortcut and button

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We can already jump back and forward by one second with Shift + left/right arrow. However, it would be useful if we could view the next or previous frame when a video is paused. This is available in other media players; in VLC you can use the E key if I remember correctly.

Describe the solution you'd like A keyboard shortcut to view the previous frame and one for the next frame, maybe with associated context menu items to show the shortcut.

Describe alternatives you've considered Seeking manually

You can use the comma (,) key to go to the previous frame (actually not the exact previous one but it's close enough) and the period (.) key to go to the next frame.

Thank you, this is very useful. I would suggest showing these shortcuts somewhere, maybe in a dedicated list in Settings > About, because sometimes discovering them is not easy.

Yeah it's not very discoverable, and they are based on the YouTube player. We do have a wiki page that covers most of them, but not ideal.
