SeekButton

A button component for seeking media playback forward or backward by a specified number of seconds

Anatomy 

<SeekButton />

Behavior

Seeks media by a configurable number of seconds (default 30). Positive values seek forward, negative values seek backward. The seek is clamped to media bounds (0 to duration).

Accessibility

Renders a <button> with an automatic aria-label describing the action, e.g. “Seek forward 30 seconds” or “Seek backward 10 seconds”. Override with the label prop. Keyboard activation: Enter / Space.
