Feature description

When minimizing the video player (picture-in-picture or background play), overlay or show the full playlist behind it for easy video selection in a bigger view.

Image

Why do you want this feature?

When selecting videos from a playlist while one is playing, the view is restricted and small, only showing videos around the current one, making it hard to find others.

Image

This view is better only when the video is already put on full screen, leaving the selector intact for easier playlist navigation.

Additional information

App version: 0.28.5
Android version: 13
No exact matching issues found.
Alternatives considered: Current cramped selector; manual searching.
Benefits: Seamless video switching without leaving player (better UX for daily use while keeping it smooth)
