Three pieces of feedback on vc=26, fixed in one pass:
(1) Swipe-to-minimize was on the fullscreen player, where it fought
PlayerView's own touch handling and felt janky. Moved the gesture to
the VideoDetailScreen — the same place YouTube/NewPipe put it. The
drag handle is the inline-player surface itself (the 16:9 box at
top); outside that, the description scrolls normally. The whole
page translates with the finger via graphicsLayer + an alpha/scale
fade so the motion reads as "the video is being tucked away" rather
than the old jump-and-snap. Threshold 140dp → onMinimize.
Fullscreen keeps the down-arrow button for minimize; the
drag-to-dismiss path is gone from PlayerScreen entirely (along with
its Animatable + density imports). Whichever surface is visible has
exactly one minimize affordance.
(2) The minibar was always visible on every non-Player screen, which
meant it stacked under the VideoDetail page even though the inline
player is already there. Updated visibility predicate to also hide
on VideoDetail — the minibar is now strictly the take-over UI for
when you leave the video page. Tapping the minibar pushes back to
VideoDetail (not fullscreen) so the mental model is symmetrical:
swipe-down to leave, tap to come back.
(3) Two new buttons on the VideoDetail action row:
Background — disables the video track on the controller and
pops out of detail. The foreground service keeps audio going;
the minibar appears on whatever screen you land on. Pre-checks
that the controller is actually playing this video before
leaving — otherwise the minibar would dismiss into empty.
Popout — enters PiP via the activity, same code path as the
fullscreen overlay button. Same controller pre-check.
Nav helper: added Navigator.resetTo(Screen) so that minimize from
a deep-link entry (where VideoDetail is the only stack item) drops
the user on Home rather than no-op'ing.
