Replace the separate Screen.VideoDetail page + MinibarOverlay with one ExpandablePlayer container that morphs continuously between the full video page and the bottom minibar, in both directions. The old flow just made the minibar appear/vanish; this is a true shared-element transition. - One fraction (0=minibar, 1=full page) drives a graphicsLayer scale+translate on a single mounted TextureView PlayerView. The transform runs in the render phase (reads the Animatable inside the layer block) so the morph is smooth without recomposing the detail body, and the same video surface stays live across the whole range. - 100dp collapsed player is 16:9, same as expanded, so the morph is a pure uniform scale (no aspect distortion). - Opening a video sets OpenVideo + expands instead of pushing a screen; the browse screen stays underneath so collapsing returns you there. - New OpenVideo singleton (open video) distinct from NowPlaying (playing video); the two are kept in sync while collapsed so autoplay-next doesn't leave the open page stale. - VideoDetailBody extracted from VideoDetailScreen; the inline player surface + resolve/play wiring became InlinePlayerSurface inside ExpandablePlayer. VideoDetailScreen + MinibarOverlay deleted. - Back: fullscreen pops, then expanded collapses, then browse stack. - Unchanged: shared controller, NowPlaying, setPlayingFrom, SponsorBlock, autoplay-next, PiP, background audio, and true-fullscreen Player (⛶). |

Straw
A Sulkta fork of NewPipe. Android YouTube client, Compose UI, Media3 player, with SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike baked in.
The extractor is strawcore, a Rust port of NewPipeExtractor exposed to Kotlin
via UniFFI. No InnerTube/JS deobf code path lives on the JVM anymore.
Install
F-Droid repo: https://fdroid.sulkta.com/fdroid/repo
Add the repo in your F-Droid client of choice, then install Straw.
The app also self-updates from the same repo when an APK lands there with a
higher versionCode.
What's in
- Search, video detail, channel pages, playlists
- Inline player + fullscreen + minibar + background audio + PiP
- Media3 ExoPlayer (DASH / HLS / progressive / merged DASH chunks)
- SponsorBlock auto-skip (categories user-toggleable)
- Return YouTube Dislike on video detail
- RSS-based subscription feed (fast — ~1s for 50 subs)
- Hide-shorts / hide-paid / hide-age-restricted feed filters
- Resume positions + watch history + search history
- Local playlists, downloads (video + audio)
- NewPipe-format settings import (subs + playlists + history)
What's out (on purpose)
- Trending / algorithmic feeds. Subscriptions only.
- iOS / desktop targets. Android-only for now.
- Google Play Services anything.
Layout
strawApp/ Sulkta-authored app — Compose UI, Media3 wiring, SB + RYD clients
rust/ strawcore — UniFFI wrapper around the Rust extractor
shared/ KMP scaffold inherited from upstream NewPipe (unused for now)
app/ Upstream NewPipe :app module — kept for reference
Build
./gradlew :strawApp:assembleDebug
Requires the Rust toolchain plus the four Android targets:
rustup target add aarch64-linux-android armv7-linux-androideabi \
x86_64-linux-android i686-linux-android
cargo install cargo-ndk uniffi-bindgen
…and ANDROID_NDK_HOME pointing at NDK r27c (or newer). The Gradle build runs
cargo ndk + uniffi-bindgen automatically.
