Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It can be frustrating when trying to understand a specific part of a video from a timestamp mentioned in a comment. Currently, clicking the timestamp link takes the user to that moment in the video, but there’s no way to preview the content of that timestamp without disrupting the main playback.

Describe the solution you'd like
When hovering over a timestamp link in a comment, a small preview frame for that specific timestamp should appear in a floating div above the link. If the user hovers over the frame itself, the main video should pause, and a preview should start playing from that timestamp within the floating div. If the user clicks while the preview is playing, it should scroll to the top of the page and resume the main video from the timestamp shown in the preview at the moment the user clicked.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Adding a small "preview" button next to each timestamp link instead of using on-hover actions.

Additional context
This feature would improve user experience by allowing previews of timestamped moments without interfering with the main playback. It would be especially useful for videos with lots of timestamps in the comments, where users may want quick glimpses before committing to viewing sections.
