Mobile video page
The mobile view for a video page makes poor use of space. Compare our page with the YouTube Android app:

In the YouTube app, the video is pinned to the top of the screen along with the header. Only the lower part scrolls. This allows the user to interact with the rest of the page without interrupting the video. The video is also full-width with no margins.
In our version, the video is not full-width and is not pinned to the page. The video and slides are separated by a row of buttons and the speaker's name.
We have to rethink the layout of this page to make better use of space on mobile browsers. We should be designing this for Android first and then for iOS because Android allows embedded video while iOS only plays video full screen. A design for Android will also work on iOS, but not the other way around.
