Some additional features to mpv -android

Components

Mpv- android is an opensource app designed to entertain the users.Here we can play videos.It is a video player. I was using this app Today i saw so many features were missing,mainly these three popup, background play and forward backward feature. We can't play video as an audio in background .The app also doesn't support popup playing. Also there isn't forward backward feature.

Proposal

In this app here users can play any type of videos as it supports a lot of formats.
I am suggesting addition of these three features popup, background play and forward backward playing of videos.

• Background play is a feature by which users can listen audio of any video in the background which means users can minimize the app and can listen audios.
• Popup : It is a feature by which we can make the video popup to a smaller screen and can use other apps while watching videos.
• By Forward backward feature we can play next or last video easily.
  By these features it will be more attractive and better experience for the users.We are not able to listen audio or do other things while on other apps.These are little improvements which will make this app stand apart.
  I will show the examples of these three features in the below section.

Mockups / Examples

These features should be implemented as shown in the image below

Popup and background play features

Forward backward features

Once implemented these three features should look like this.

Benefits

• The popup feature for the app will be helpful in a way that you can continue with your work on your smartphone at the same time you watch the video from the app. This will help you save your time while using otherr apps and doing your work on your device. The popup could be sorted as well to either keep the screen small or large based on your preferences.
• The background play will make your video play in the background as an audio. If there are not any visuals in it you can just play the video in background and listen to it while using your phone for different other purposes. Or if you wish to only listen to an audio and omit the video at that time you can use the background play feature.
• By forward backward feature we can play next or last videos easily just by clicking the forward backward signs.
  Thanks.
