Is there an existing issue for this?

mux-player, mux-player-react

Description

It would be great if the mux-player came with hover labels on the controls so that users can quickly understand with which hotkeys they can control the player. I added an example from Loom's player below. It would be nice if I could customize the label's text, but this is optional if the default labels are instructive enough.

Expected Behavior

A user can learn quickly with which hotkeys they can control the mux-player.

haha you're hitting all of the media chrome features @PJUllrich. This one's actually on our radar, but not yet scheduled. Some of the customization details would be trickier to get right, at least for Mux Player without building your own theme. I'll be sure to bring this (and others) up in our next Media Chrome meeting.
