Hi. A client has come back to me to note that the replay button on the right side of the seekbar doesn't work. I've checked it on both the Flash and HTML5 versions. I also can't find any triggers that specify the replay button, when pushed, should replay the audio for the slide. Can you help?

This seems to be a feature/issue that should be resolved in the software and not addressed by workarounds. It's a Rewind button. It should work like a Rewind button found in any other UI learners and developers are accustomed to interacting with. Maybe it's matter of making this the normal behavior as a default and adding controls to allow a developer to alter if necessary but not required to create familiar, and well designed from a usability standpoint, learning experiences. Additionally, I would highly suggest the seek bar and rewind button be unlinked in terms of showing or not showing controls. Although related functions, these should be available independent of each other in the controls.

I add my vote here. A rewind button should rewind no matter how the slide is designed. You click, it goes back to the beginning. No thinking should be necessary. For the learners, it just looks like an annoying bug forcing you to drag the seekbar manually. Please, do something to fix that.

Add my vote to this as well. This comes up for us a lot, and it's not easy for us to handle. Our users want it to rewind, or start the slide over. Sometimes it works they way they desire, sometimes it doesn't...that's frustrating for everyone. We need to be able to have separate control over the "when revisiting" and the function of the replay button. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm with Jason and Jessica and dealing with this issue now as well. The rewind/replay button should be independent of BOTH the seekbar and the "when revisiting" setting. This causes some significant workaround needs.

I too would like a replay button independent from the seek bar and matching the Previous-Next buttons :)

Adding my vote for an independent rewind button from the seekbar!

Add my vote too. I'm disappointed to see this issue was originally mentioned 4 years ago and it still hasn't been fixed. At a minimum, there should be a way to remove the Replay button (independently of the seek bar) so that my learners aren't reporting that the player is "broken" because it isn't functioning (rewinding) as expected.

I'm adding my vote as well. Trying to finalize a project for a client who wants to have everything consistent. Rewind audio should be an independent feature.

Thanks for checking in, folks!

We're still monitoring requests for a rewind functionality. I appreciate everyone contributing and will make sure our report is up-to-date with the latest votes!

Are we any closer to getting the rewind button un-linked???? I would like to add my vote and 10 more from my development team...

Adding my vote as well. UX Feedback on my newest course brought up that some slides could rewind and others could not. I'm having to go slide by slide by slide now in testing mode to see which ones do rewind and which do not to now adjust the revisiting settings on each slide. This is a waste of time. Rewind should be the default, and we should be able to customize the rewind for specific slides if necessary (not the other way around).

Adding my vote for this... why put a rewind button if you can't rewind...?
Customer wants to revisit slide and have the option to replay it... but can't. It's a dead end.

Literally have a flat slide (no layers) that won't rewind if it's set to 'resume saved state'.

Add my vote as well.

If the button cannot work separately, then it should (at least) be able to be turned on or off separately.

The replay/rewind button is not accessible when tabbing through the player elements. It goes to the seekbar as a whole allowing play/pause when selected, then the volume button, but does not select the replay button.. making it inaccessible to keyboard users. Any insight?
