I recently bought a shield device specifically for the full plex integration. Overall the experience has been reasonable (much better transcoding functionality than my old mac mini), except I have found the UI during playback be very difficult in certain situations. The fast forward and rewind is extremely counter intuitive and one has to "watch" the clock to determine where they are, multiple presses are required to pause or play, and the "jump forward/back" buttons just go to the next tv show or movie. My biggest gripe is definitely the FF and rewind--it makes the system almost unusable.
Is there a fix in the works or a workaround setting I'm not finding? A simple visual "still image" slider with the current implementation would help tremendously--this is what is implemented in netflix on the shield and most all video on apple tvs. Alternatively, one could set the "jump forward/back" buttons to always skip a specific amount (e.g., 15 sec). Almost anything would be better than the current implementation and would keep me from returning the device.
Thanks, Nick
