Volume and seeking step

[qwerdy]

In elisa 0.3.5 you can define the volume and seeking step in the config.
Is this forgotten in 0.5.x? or is it intentionally removed?

As for now i have to edit the plugins/poblesec/player_video.py manually, everytime i update elisa.

Indeed, this is a regression in the sense that in 0.5 the value is not customizable using the configuration file.

Changes in player_video.py doesn't take effect

This is the standard config in lines 404-407 in player_video.py for Elisa 0.5.26 running under Ubuntu 8.10, stored in folder /usr/share/pyshared/elisa/plugins/poblesec:

[code]
self.volume_increment = 0.10
self.volume_decrement = 0.30
self.seek_backward_seconds = 60
self.seek_forward_seconds = 60
[/code]

After an upgrade I always change this code to a shorter timeshift (15 seconds) and a shorter decremential step in volume (0.10):

[code]
self.volume_increment = 0.10
self.volume_decrement = 0.10
self.seek_backward_seconds = 15
self.seek_forward_seconds = 15
[/code]

From the first installation of Elisa development branch I installed, this has always worked as intended. I get 15-second skips when pressing either the LEFT or RIGHT keys. I also get 1-bar increments when pressing UP and DOWN keys. With the latest release, 0.5.26, this no longer works. 60 seconds/1 minute skips in timeline and 3-bar decremential skips in volume is all I get.

This is because the 0.5.26 release is shipped as plugin updates through our plugin repository. The poblesec plugin (version 0.2) located in ~/.elisa-0.5/plugins/ is taking precedence over the installed one (version 0.1).
