Does anyone know? I was surprised it didn’t just work as expected. But none of the video reviews show it in action.

The closest I’ve found to instructions is from a written review that says..

“I must confess something: I had an embarrassing few hours where I couldn’t figure out how to make this work. Eventually, I learned the trick: after pausing a video, you’ve got to rest your finger on the D-pad momentarily before you start circling around it. An animation will pop up in the progress bar (with a little dot that indicates where your finger is) to let you know you’re in jogwheel mode. If you just pause the video and immediately start the circular movement, it doesn’t do the right thing. Don’t be like me and unnecessarily factory reset your Apple TV 4K because of this.”

can anyone explain it better or link to a video showing how to do it? I feel like an idiot lol.
 
then an icon should appear and you are able to circle touch and skip forward and back
 
Thanks. I was trying to do it on hiring videos. Now I’ve done it.. it’s cool but faster doing the swipey swipe thing on the track pad. I can see it being handy for people if you set the track pack only to click tho.
