Rewind 30s Button

[SurreyMichael]

It would be really useful to be able to add a 'rewind 30 seconds' button to a lovelace card in Home Assistant.

Ideally something that works through mini-media-player. This already shows a progress bar which does allow scrubbing through a podcast, but is clumsy to use especially on mobile rather than desktop.

Describe alternatives you've considered Learn mindfulness so that I concentrate better during podcasts and don't miss the interesting bits.

I have a partial solution more or less ready to go which allows you to pass down the configuration for the mini-media-player so that you can do this

type: 'custom:podcast-card'
entity: sensor.gpodder
name: Ian's Podcasts
show_player: true
custom_player: true
player_config:
    shortcuts:
    buttons:
        - type: script
        id: skip
        icon: mdi:rewind-30
        data: media_player.bedroom
        interval: -30
        - type: script
        id: skip
        icon: mdi:fast-forward-30
        data: media_player.bedroom
        interval: 30

Then setup your script as described here: http://community.home-assistant.io/t/lovelace-mini-media-player/68459/1218

The only limitation with this is that you'll have to hardcode the media_player that the script calls. I'll look into providing some variables possibly to work around that in another release and will push this out after I get home and test it a bit.

Ian,

I used the link to learn how to set up a rewind button on a mini-media-player card - and set up the script - and it works a treat.

It will be nice to have the button on your podcast card if possible, but having the two cards next to each other is a work around.

Many thanks!
Michael

@SurreyMichael I plan to add this to the card itself. Just need to test it a bit.
