Wait let's be clear about one thing. When you say that fast forward and rewind don't work correctly in quick look, are you talking about that when you stream a file directly off an internet site, you can't interact with the timeline and move through it? If that's what you mean, you're absolutely correct. IF you mean that you press the space bar on a file, you'll find the percentage bar at or near the right. interact with that and you can move forward or backward through a file.
