GtkVideo ux review
GTK has this GtkVideo widget which is meant for embedding video in apps that are not dedicated video players, say a chat app or something where an animated gif needs to be shown.
We have an example of it on page 1 of gtk4-widget-factory.
It would be great to review the current functionality, and decide how we want a widget for this use case to look and feel.
Some questions that have come up:
- do we want clicking the video to toggle play/pause ?
- should there be a separate mute button ?
- do we need the fiddly position indicator ?
- what about fullscreening ?
