# SeekButton

Accessible seek button for skipping forward or backward by a configurable number of seconds

## Import

```tsx
import { SeekButton } from '@videojs/react';
```

## Anatomy

```tsx
<SeekButton />
```

## Behavior

Seeks media by a configurable number of `seconds` (default 30). Positive values seek forward, negative values seek backward. The seek is clamped to media bounds (0 to duration).

## Accessibility

Renders a `<button>` with an automatic `aria-label` describing the action, e.g. “Seek forward 30 seconds” or “Seek backward 10 seconds”. Override with the `label` prop. Keyboard activation: Enter / Space.

## Examples

### Basic Usage

**App.tsx**

```tsx
import { Container, createPlayer, SeekButton } from '@videojs/react';
import { Video, videoFeatures } from '@videojs/react/video';

const { Player } = createPlayer({ features: videoFeatures });

export default function BasicUsage() {
  return (
    <Player>
      <Container className="media-container">
        <Video src="https://stream.mux.com/BV3YZtogl89mg9VcNBhhnHm02Y34zI1nlMuMQfAbl3dM/highest.mp4" autoPlay muted playsInline loop />
        <div className="buttons">
          <SeekButton
            seconds={-5}
            className="media-seek-button"
            render={(props, state) => (
              <button {...props}>
                {state.direction === 'backward' ? '\u23EA' : '\u23E9'} {5}s
              </button>
            )}
          />
          <SeekButton
            seconds={10}
            className="media-seek-button"
            render={(props, state) => (
              <button {...props}>
                {10}s {state.direction === 'forward' ? '\u23E9' : '\u23EA'}
              </button>
            )}
          />
