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

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo Linux
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.60.0
Qt Version: 5.12.5

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.
