On macOS the Picture in Picture video player does not have seek backwards and forwards controls. I use those a lot on iOS so I wanted to have them on macOS as well. Pippo adds seeking controls to your Picture in Picture window!

It would be really great if you could add an Air Play button

ui suggestion: replace opacity with vibrancy effect

@jw_c Yeah it's not perfect right now. The problem is that it's nearly impossible to replicate the effect used on the buttons. What I settled on now was the closest I could get it (without spending 2 hours on vibrancy 😜 ) If you have any pointers, let me know!

@jordi_bruin Does NSVisualEffectView work for your button 🤔?

@jw_c I've built the app with SwiftUI, and the default background with vibrancy didn't match. I can look into going into UIKit but I prefer to stay SwiftUI only if possible. I'm going to do some experiments with NSVisualEffectView though, thanks!

@jordi_bruin If your app requires macOS 12.0+, maybe you can try https://developer.apple.com/docu...

@jw_c Yeah, those are the default background material options I mentioned. They're quite limiting at the moment. Thanks for helping me out!

Hi all! I really missed seeking controls on the macOS Picture in Picture window for quickly going back 15 seconds in a video. So I made a little app called Pippo that solves the problem. Let me know if you run into anything or if you have any feature suggestions!
