FINE CONTROL OF MEDIA PRESENTATION PROGRESS

摘要

In a touch-based device presenting a media content playback, a first increment of a first control is determined. The first control allows a user to move forward or back in the media content in steps of the first increment using a touch-based gesture. A second increment and a size of a second control is computed using the first increment and a factor. The second increment is smaller than the first increment. The second control is constructed and presented according to the second increment and the size of the second control, the second control allowing the user to move forward or back in the media content in steps of the second increment. Responsive to the user using the second control, a forward or back movement in the media content by a multiple of the second increment is performed.

1. A method for controlling media content playback, the method comprising:
determining, in a touch-based device presenting the media content playback, a first increment of a first control, the first control allows a user to move forward or back in the media content in steps of the first increment using a touch-based gesture; computing using the first increment and a factor, a second increment and a size of a second control, wherein the second increment is smaller than the first increment; constructing the second control according to the second increment and the size of the second control, the second control allowing the user to move forward or back in the media content in steps of the second increment; presenting on the media content playback, the second control; and moving, responsive to the user using the second control, one of (i)forward and (ii)back in the media content by a multiple of the second increment.
