Is your feature request related to a problem?

I've been trying to use the session recording player to debug some issues today. I've noticed finding the exact time user did $thing is hard.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Show timestamp when hovering progress bar and events on the side
  • Also: Highlight events I'm looking for on the side

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

cc @clarkus @alexkim205 @paolodamico For the ongoing project :)

Thank you for your feature request – we love each and every one!

Thanks for filing this, @macobo. We are definitely tracking changes for exposing timestamps in the player. The most recent version capture this at https://www.figma.com/file/gQBj9YnNgD8YW4nBwCVLZf/PostHog-App?node-id=4194%3A28924.

Also: Highlight events I'm looking for on the side

This is a recurring topic but I've been struggling to figure out how a user specifies this. Some ideas arose around inheriting filters from the list view into the player view, but that feels a little too buried to me. There's an event search on the on events list, but that is more for finding than highlighting important stuff. Would some means of specifying a list of important events to highlight be useful? We need some criteria for promoting events to the seek bar annotations position, so this could be a good starting point for that concept.

I think highlighting events that match the search is a good starting point.

Usecase: I want to track down $problem user ran into (bug, unexpected behaviour, etc). I go to sessions and search for that event and for that user. Opening the session I want to have an easy way to skip to this event.
