PiP/Multi view support

Opened this issue · 7 comments

Description

I would like to be able to use Moonlight side-by-side with other apps/inputs

Motivation

Currently, WebOS web browser is very limited and broken in some websites and sometimes it refuses to work while watching live TV.

Additional Context

WebOS 7.4

Hello, this is an interesting feature. However I can't implement it at this moment because I don't have a device that supports Multiview.

Note for anyone who may be interested investigating this:

  • Multiview is available on webOS 7.0+
  • For apps like Moonlight, it uses decoder resources, which means it might not be able to run with another app that plays video

I'm interested as a tester if I can get this feature shipped. I'm getting used to dev manager.

Also, I don't know tech details but I can watch TV and YouTube (Ad free) at the same time without issues

I wanted to try this but Moonlight is not selectable when selecting what to put in the PiP views. Only a few apps like youtube, photos, etc are.

@FallingSnow is your TV rooted? If you're able to dump content of YouTube app, then I probably can see how it enabled PiP.

I'm not. I don't know of a way of rooting my firmware version.

YouTube Adblocked has PiP enabled and source code is available. Isn't there relevant info about PiP?

@Marocco2 It's a web app, so it may behave differently. The official YouTube app is a native app instead.
