While using the cast feature on firefox, which is an amazing amazing amazing add to this new version I've noticed there are a couple issues with controlling the video while casting to my roku. The roku remote does stop and pause the video but there is no way to fast forward or rewind. I haven't found any other ways to do this directly from the browser either. Am I missing something , or is this only because it's still in the beta period?

Thank you so much! Kevin Mitchell

Hmm you appear to be testing the more bleeding edge Nightly channel builds and not the Beta channel where 33.0 is on (currently at 33.0b7) as it has the roku and chromecast. There may not be back/ forward at time?
