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.

You can also now disable the letterboxing of the video making it use the full height (at the expense of the left and right side). This can be useful on #mobile in landscape mode to make the whole video a bit larger while still preserving aspect ratio.
