SeekBar on VideoPlayer

Right now i have a Videoplayer that is being rendered on an Image Canvas the issue is I need a seekbar very similiar to the roVideoScreen but the videoplayer does not have one.

I can't deviate from the VIdeoplayer because i'm using the image canvas to set up a text overlay on top of the videoplayer is there a way to draw content on the image canvas to create the seekbar?

Re: SeekBar on VideoPlayer

Yes, you can certainly draw trick play controls with roImageCanvas. Although you will get better performance and a better user experience if you use roScreen instead.

Thanks in the ended I used images and drew them on the image canvas to act like a seek bar.
