Zoom in on video stream/image

We want our students to be able to zoom in on a video stream. If it is not possible to zoom in on one area of the video while it is playing, at least allow a pause and zoom in on the still image.
This is especially needed for anyone watching on a small screen like a phone but it would benefit users on all platforms and devices. Currently, if a student needs to zoom in on an image, they have to take a screenshot and use third-party software to zoom in.
This change would help improve accessibility for anyone with a visual impairment. It also helps some neurodivergent students because it allows them to focus on the most important part of the video without other distractions.

This request is over a year old, but I want to comment on it, in hopes that it can boost engagement. This is an absolutely incredible suggestion.
Thanks for giving this a bump, Justin! Feedback like this helps us with prioritizing what changes we make, while also considering everyone's unique workflows.
Our team is still considering the best way to implement something like this, so I don't have any significant updates to provide on that front.
