I'd like a back button, so the stream pause/resume isn't such a high cognitive load high-stakes high-regret "oh, that looks ... drat, too late" decision. Or perhaps a fade transition?

Left-arrow key goes back to the previous video, right arrow key takes you forward. Not sure if there’s an option for mobile.

For anybody else that thought this doesn't work, you need to first select the circle pause button at the bottom to put the controls in "focus"
