The volume control is silly. There is no reason to have to scroll to get from 0% to 100%. That is a waste of time. Using a whole menu item row for each entry is a massive waste of screen real estate. A grid of 20 buttons would be better (but still bad). A slider like everyone else in the known universe uses would be nice. A wheel would be cool too. Anything but an inertial menu.

The seek control could be worse... Being able to jump to a specific time is nice. But when I just want to jump to "the middle", that is harder with a menu than with a slider of some sort, because first I have to figure out the approx time index of the middle. Also, it takes longer to use.
