Would love this feature so I can fly quickly through the opening credits of my TV Shows, and get right to the plot... Who needs to see the M\*A\*S\*H helicopter land and tell me who the Stars are, for all 100+ episodes. ---

Bump. I really would like this feature. I have so many educational videos that I'd like to watch at higher speed.  ---

+1 on this idea. I'd also like to see a "Go To" feature whereby you can jump to a specific timeframe in a video/song.  Perhaps have the option in the OSD after starting a video/song which allows you to input a time e.g.  2m 36s and it jumps to that time and plays from there.  The option could also exist in the menu on the side before playing a video/song, so that it immediately plays the video/song from that chosen point. I have this feature on a really, really old sumvision cyclone box and it was invaluable.  It makes it excrutiatingly painful if you've just watched something to the end, and want to go back and check something quickly which exists halfway into a long video. ---

ClubLife, a "Go To" feature already exists, at least in Plex Home Theater. Simply start typing numbers during playback, and an overlay will pop up allowing you to input a specific timecode. See [this](https://forums.plex.tv/topic/55637-jump-to-time/) and [this](https://forums.plex.tv/topic/103547-jump-to-time/) post for more info. +1 to the playback option though ---

This would be an awesome feature, especially for things that involve speech / education etc.   Plex admins, plex developers:  This is a pretty good feature to add, and I see alot of Plex Pass badges on these requests.  Thoughts?   Thanks for your attention devs!  We love you guys!
