Disabling video player touch controls?

This is so annoying. Is there a way to disable the touch screen gesture controls in the video player or other video player apps that replace the default?

For example sliding your finger right skip forwards 5 seconds and sliding up and down adjusts volume.

Which is my main issue. I don't want this. If I'm trying to watch "something I don't want the sound on" lol an extremely slight slip of the finger upwards can cause extremely awkward embarrassing situations...

Why make 2 controls I don't get it. The side buttons are sufficient. Its like this feature is just there to screw you over, I swear... It makes me feel like my phone hates me and then I hate it back.

Help!
