[Feature Request]: Playback Speed UI Change - Display playback speed when not 1x #6166

Closed thebetauser closed 1 week ago

Guidelines

Problem Description

The current version (0.22.0-beta) replaced the numerical representation of the playback speed with an icon. As a user who likes vary playback from 1x to 3x, it's hard to visually see how many times I have to press the keyboard shortcut for playback speed button to get it back to 1x.

Having an overlay ontop of the new icon with the current playback speed (ie: 0.5x, 1.5x, 2x, 3x, etc) would be helpful to quickly navigate playback speed.

Proposed Solution

Tiny overlay on top or in the corner of the new playback speed icon showing the current playback speed.

Alternatives Considered

A more convenient solution would be to add a new keyboard shortcut key to automatically reset playback to 1x speed such as using a modifier like (ctrl-p or shift-p) or mapping it to a new key

Issue Labels

display more information to user, new keyboard shortcut, visual improvement
