Feature request: Show video time-stamps when mouse-hovering time slider
Very often in Q&A posts, students give a timestamp, and/or in my replies I tell them which timestamp to go to.
But in the current Udemy video player, you cannot see directly the timestamp until you click on it. Therefore, it's a bit annoying and time-consuming to find a specific point in a video. And if the internet connection isn't that great, it can take really long to find a specific part of the video.
Compare this with, e.g., YouTube's player, where hovering the mouse over the time slider at the bottom of the video shows the timestamp in a little window. That makes it really easy to jump to a specific location in the video.
Can we please have this feature in Udemy? It would really enhance the user (student and instructor) experience.

HI @MikeXCohen
Currently this option is not available on the platform; however, I've passed these suggestions to the team.Eliana Cerna

Please please please add this feature to Udemy.
I see youtube being a big competitor to udemy in the future. And the number one reason for this is the 'timestamp'
Youtubers will start creating long-format courses on youtube with timestamps.
If this feature is added to Udemy along with its various other features, this will greatly benefit both students & teachers. And we can always tell students why Udemy stands apart from Youtube. And the 'value' they get by signing up for courses on Udemy.I hope you have some good developers working at Udemy who can get this done.
Thanks in advance
