Some features that I really hope to see in the app. #4592

I recently switched from Windows to Mac and used PotPlayer, which was unstable. Now I use IINA player as my primary video/audio player, but I miss some features from PotPlayer.

1: Bookmarks: I watch courses and want to create bookmarks for later reference. 2: Subtitles Delay: I know this feature exists, but it currently has a limited adjustment range of plus or minus seconds. 3: iOS App: I hope you release an iPhone version with the same features and additional capabilities, like streaming videos from a Mac to an iPhone (similar to the VLC Player app). 4: Improve the web extension: The extension is buggy and not functioning optimally.

Thank you for considering my request, and I look forward to seeing these features in the app soon.

1: Bookmarks: I watch courses and want to create bookmarks for later reference.

In IINA settings on the General tab in the Behavior section enabling Resume last playback position will cause IINA to remember where you stopped playing the video along with other player state.

I'm thinking this does not provide the bookmarks feature you are looking for as this feature is somewhat "hidden" from the user. There is no UI for the user to be able to look over or control this information.

I will mark this issue as a feature request for bookmarks the user can control.

2: Subtitles Delay: I know this feature exists, but it currently has a limited adjustment range of plus or minus seconds.

Select Show Subtitles Panel under the Subtitles menu. On the panel look for Subtitle delay. To the right of the slider is a text box where you can directly enter the delay. I just tested setting a 120 second delay. What limit did you encounter?

3: iOS App: I hope you release an iPhone version with the same features and additional capabilities, like streaming videos from a Mac to an iPhone (similar to the VLC Player app).

This is covered in the IINA FAQ: Will there be a Windows/Linux/iOS version?

As nearly all of the IINA project code is tied to macOS, the view is that support for other platforms should be a separate project. The code you might think could be shared with other platforms, such as code that knows how to decode a video file, comes from other projects that IINA is built on top of.

4: Improve the web extension: The extension is buggy and not functioning optimally.

I can't comment on this as I don't work on the browser extenion. If you know of a specific bug it would be good to enter a separate issue with details on the problem.
