Description J 2019-11-25 23:00:07 UTC

SUMMARY
When watching Youtube videos at 2X speed the multimedia section inside the mobile app shows the wrong time currently playing

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Play a Youtube video at more than 1.0 speed
2. Go to Multimedia controls in the mobile app


OBSERVED RESULT
After playing a video in 2X the current position is wrongly reflected in the mobile app

EXPECTED RESULT
The current playing position\timestamp is synced regardless of the video playback speed

KDE Connect indeed doesn't send (or therefore, use) the mpris `Rate` information, which is needed for slower/faster playback.

We need to look into adding this at some point.

Note that the mpris client (either Chrome or plasma-browser-integration) needs to set this correctly too (I didn't check this yet).

Still an issue in 1.4.0 kdeconnect and Android 1.15.1 app.

Also an issue when playing videos in VLC.

Android KDE Connect 1.7
