  🐛 Fixes

  • Android native video actually shows a picture. It shipped once as audio
    with no picture and was reverted with the compositing named as the suspect
    (DR-172). The compositing was not at fault; five independent defects sat
    between ExoPlayer and the screen, each able to produce that symptom alone. The
    app shell painted over the video surface through a CSS rule targeting
    [data-app-shell], an attribute no component had ever set in any commit
    (DR-185). The poster/title card had no way to lift on a path that renders no
    <video> element, so a black card covered the surface for the whole session
    (DR-182). The JavaScript bridges were installed by a 500 ms tree walk that
    raced the page load — and lost permanently when it lost, because the
    re-injection guard then declined to retry — so setTransparent(true) could
    never arrive (DR-183). The SurfaceView was never detached, leaking one per
    video and leaving picture-in-picture's gate stuck open (DR-184). Verified on a
    device: logcat now carries WebView transparent = true and
    Marking media ready with video on screen, the pair the original
    investigation went looking for and could not find.
    (UR-003, UR-004, UR-041 → DR-182, DR-183, DR-184, DR-185)

  • Play and pause reach the player that is actually rendering. Transport did
    nothing on the native video path — from the on-screen tap, from the control
    bar, and from a direct command invocation — while seek and skip kept working,
    because those decide elsewhere. Rust routes play/pause to the webview <video>
    whenever it believes one is active, and the player route mirrored element state
    into that belief unconditionally, including from a ten-second progress
    interval. So on the native path the frontend re-declared every ten seconds that
    an element was playing when none existed, and every intent was emitted at
    something that was not there. The mirror now lives where useHtml5Element is
    known. This also explains the flashing transport controls, since they key off
    the play state that was being contradicted on every tick.
    (UR-005, UR-003 → DR-193, DR-195)

  • The player's controls hide themselves on a touchscreen. The auto-hide timer
    was armed only from mousemove, which a touch device never fires, so the
    control bar stayed over the video for the whole film. It is now armed on entry
    and on every touch, and pinned open while paused, seeking, or with a menu open.
    (UR-003, UR-066 → DR-189)

  • The system bars go away with the player. Immersive mode had exactly one
    caller — the fullscreen button — so opening a video left the status and
    navigation bars painted over it until the user pressed a control most never
    press. (UR-066, UR-003 → DR-187)

  🔬 Internal

  • Native video presents through a TextureView rather than a SurfaceView. A
    SurfaceView renders on its own layer outside the app window and punches a
    transparent region through it, and Android's own graphics documentation warns
    that overlays do not composite reliably above one. (UR-003, UR-004 → DR-192)

  • Native Android video remains opt-in, and is not yet the default. Turning it
    on surfaced a further unverified path: returning from background audio is
    implemented only for the webview element, so playback stays dead on the native
    path (DR-190, proposed). Rotation still needs device confirmation (DR-194).
    (UR-003 → DR-188)
