time tooltip out of bounds on the right of player

[phloxic]

Since Video.js version 7.9.4 the time tooltips can go out of bounds on the right side of the player.

See e.g. https://github.com/videojs/video.js/issues/7248 and not accepted fix https://github.com/videojs/video.js/pull/7308 et.al.

This affects the plugin because it hijacks the tooltip in the mouse time display to display the preview thumbnails. Especially with widescreen movies and/or few/none buttons/menus to the right of the progressbar, the thumbnail might go (partially) out of bounds on the right side.

A nasty emergency fix would be to set overflow: hidden on the player container.

imho, for the time being applying this small change to a recent version of Video.js (either v7.x or v8.x) solves the problem without the side-effects which were the reason the patch was declined at the time.
