We've release #Livi 0.5.0, our light video player for mobile 📼 . It now shows a proper status page when processing a URL (by @tpikonen ) and can (optionally) avoid display notches in landscape mode when the #Wayland compositor sends the necessary information (e.g. #phoc does). It's already updated in #Debian and on #flathub.
#phoc gained support for the xx-cutouts-v1 Wayland protocol to inform clients about display cutouts and notches. Below screenshots shoes our video player #livi using that information to keep the video out of the cutout area:
6/x
One thing bothering us when playing videos with our little, mobile friendly video player #livi was that playing from video sites like #peeretube or #youtube showed very little information in #phosh's media player widget. This is now fixed on Livi's main branch where it fetches the necessary bits from #ytdlp to display a thumbnail and artist information making it a better companion to the pipeline app too.
We've improved a bunch of other things like faster seeking as well.
I've tagged version 0.3.1 of #livi (a little video player targeting #LinuxMobile): https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/livi/-/tags/v0.3.1
It mostly happened because I forgot to update the metainfo for 0.3.0 (which makes us look outdated on #flathub) 🤦♂️ . But there's one change still: livi now supports surface suspend so saves CPU cycles when the window is occluded (if the Wayland compositor supports it (#phosh will support that from 0.45. onwards).
@nekohayo When that
came up in #Wayland protocols I though that it could be nicely used to stop the video stream (while keeping audio going) in this little video player I care about (#livi). Thanks for the reminder, added now: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/livi/-/merge_requests/61 .Super nice that it's wired through in #gtk already too and thus easy to use.
