Previous frame

Previous frame is VLC Extension that performs short backward jumps in a playing video. This would like to be an opposite to VLC built-in feature "Next frame (e)".
You can use it as an universal back&forth jumper!

On Mac OSX you cannot enjoy controls in a custom dialog box created by this extension, but you can still use the extension if you comment out or delete line 22> create_dialog()
Quote:

-- create_dialog()

Then you just use "Numpad 4" and "Numpad 6" keys in a playing media. Feel free to edit global variables at the beginning of the script simply in some text editor.
