Feature Request: More "On-Screen" Controls #404

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

The remote is actually the weakest part of this app, usability-wise, and 
personally the less I use it the happier I will be! To this end, it would be 
lovely if we could control more settings "on screen" on our phones. For 
example, we can seek using the touch-sensitive seek bar, but there's no 
"enable/disable subtitles" button - we have to delve into the XBMC interface 
with the remote. It would be nice if more things were exposed "directly" to the 
phone on the "now playing" screen.

Additionally, when I'm watching videos I sometimes have to try playing a lot of 
different videos and do lots of seeking to work out which ones I haven't 
seen... if there was a way to get directional controls onto the "now playing" 
screen it would save me literally seconds every day!

I'm open to graphical suggestions.

I believe that the least used buttons on the remote, for most people, are the 
top four "videos" etc, buttons. The ideal function would be having the top 4 
buttons configurable, being able to control them like keybinds in a keymap. 
Some sort of advanced option that could achieve this would be perfect.
