Revamp channel selection UI #35

Open leonardoxh opened 3 years ago

The main idea would be to re arrange this screen into the channel playback part similar to the current f1 tv Android app where you can during the transmission switch the camera easily with a panel on the right or left side.

This makes much more sense then a screen before to change the channel.

But how does this works with the lean back framework ? Is it usual ?

This is a fantastic idea, I would love to be able to switch cameras during playback. You could add an icon where the language selector icon is now to popup the camera selection dialog that you already have (the one with the coloured driver squares). Another option would be to just allow the user to press the back button to go from the feed to the camera selector like it does now, but after selecting a camera when going back into a feed it should resume where you left off. This option might help close this issue as well, you wouldn't need a prompt if it just resumed at the correct location: https://github.com/leonardoxh/race-control-tv/issues/36

I'm loving this app, keep up the great work!

I think an action close to the other actions like fast forward, for sure will be the easiest option, and will also hide the missing drivers images which is not available anymore at v2 apis as I can use a smaller dialog or something like that.

I will help look into this.
