Antennapod: Mini player when playing a video podcast do not have pause button

[Matth7878]

When playing a video podcast there is no pause button in mini player to stop playback or resume it.
Yet it works if you used play button from notification. (At least with settings set to continue to play audio when quitting player)

Tested on alpha 2.0.0-RC4 for this video podcast : https://www.rts.ch/emissions/geopolitis/podcasts/?format=rss/podcast

This was already the same on previous versions. I guess pressing play on that button should directly open the video player, right?

Probably. It is the first time I tested a video podcast. Until now I wasn't even sure it existed. ;-)

can you please elaborate the problem

[Matth7878]

I don't know on what you need more info on? If you don't understand what is mini player it's the bar you see at bottom where you can see what is currently playing even if you're not on player screen.

I took a screenshot while playing with podcast linked in main post to illustrate issue :

vs classic/normal audio only podcast :

Hi,

a good starting point should be the class ExternalPlayerFragment. This is the place where the play button is set to visible for audio and to invisible for video.
