Originally created by @ScuttleSE on GitHub (May 26, 2023).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Immediately after starting the playback of a podcast, try to use the scrubbing "dot" to fastforward in a podcast

Expected behaviour

  • I expect to be able to "grab" the dot and move it to an arbitrary position in the podcast

Actual behaviour

  • I can't grab the dot at all. The only thing that happens is that the podcast jumps back to timestamp 0:00

Environment data

Audiobookshelf Version: 2.2.20

  • Android App?
  • iOS App?

iOS Issue

iOS Version: 16.3.1

iPhone model:
14 Plus

I'm not able to reproduce this on an iphone 10. Grabbing the cursor shouldn't matter whether it is a podcast or an audiobook. Are you able to grab it on an audiobook?
Do you think it has something to do with how close it is to the edge of the screen?

After some testing I get the same thing with audiobooks. It's like the dot is very very small and "grabbing" it for scrubbing requires you to hit it in a very specific place. Other apps seems to be a lot more forgiving.

Updated in v0.9.65-beta

I'm still not sure if this is sensitive enough. I may need to take another approach to this but let me know

@advplyr This is still a problem for me on an iPhone SE 2020 with the latest beta (iOS 16 and now 17). Usually the only way I can seek forward in the track is to tap forward 10s many times, then grab the cursor from there when it's no longer too close to the side of the display.

Here is the behavior when attempting to grab it at the start of a track:
