Use same icon logic for main and pop-up players #4601
Comments
Thank you @B0pol for interactions, as discussion helps see all solutions to users use-cases |
The pop up player alsp doesnt respect other applications drawing over the screen - e.g. while using Dimmer to tweak the brightness, the pop up player ignores the settings set by Dimmer completely, and plays at system set brightness instead. This does not happen in other apps (Chromium browsers, Twire, VLC) |
@aladar42 I think that behavior is expected if the apps you mentiond play videos in popup mode using the PiP player. |
I'm not sure I understand why NewPipe behaves differently, though? |
NewPipe doesn't use the Android PiP player, but its own custom popup player. |
@aladar42 If I am not wrong, this issue specifically discusses about icons. Also, won't having brightness and volume gestures create conflicts with changing size and position on popup player? |

This issue contains only one feature request. I will open one issue for every feature I want to request.
Describe the feature you want
Took me a while to find share button. But, it works well. The arrow icon with the share below, that is.
Only issue is why this is not also used in pop-up player?

Full video player
vs

Pop-Up
Is it not possible to have the same implementation in both?
It should be logical that the same design should be continued, so that users will not be confused where to find those buttons
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe it
There is no share button in pop-up player.
User needs to click on Full player icon (So, there is space for an icon🤔🤨)
Then click on arrow icon, then click on share.
App does not use same logic and implementation for similar issue.
The space required is the same for an arrow button and a full screen button, so that should not be a problem.
If there is not enough space, just do not show it, same as other icons already bein displayed - Resolution, Speed, Full screen
The only change would be for the full screen button to be under the umbrella of the arrow key on the right, along with share button ...
Having the arrow key beside the full screen icon should not be a problem, either:

Full player icons:
Pop-up player icons:

How will you/everyone benefit from this feature?
Users will be able to directly share a video from pop-up player.
App will use same design and logic for screen icons/buttons so no confusion across different players
