Conflicting Video Player UI and Possible Solutions

Open joiboi08 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Mainly 2 issues in UI:

1. Redundant Scroll Timestamp

Details With Images :

  • The SCROLL time stamp is unnecessary because the chapter segments are already dynamic and detailed - they have a timestamp AND give an idea what is being taught at what time. PLUS, chapter segments details (timestamp + info) are partially blocked by SCROLL timestamp when scroll is dragged across the video length, providing incomplete info and/or unclean look.
  • EXAMPLE :

As evident, the SCROLL timestamp is obstructing a good information feature.

  • Also obstructs chapter segment if viewing the chapter details near the scroll:

Possible Solution :

  • Remove the TIME STAMP feature of the scroll, NOT the scroll itself. Just the hovering timestamp. Seeing video time is nicely done already with the chapter details. I would do this myself but I'm a little behind and do not know TS yet :(

2. Chapter Segment Details BG Too Opaque

Details :

  • They make it hard to see the bar along which we manually seek the scroll, like this :

  • If I am hovering across the bar to see where I want to go, the BG of chapter details almost completely hides the video UI.

Possible Solution :

  • Just making the BG of hovering chapter details translucent/less opaque should work nicely. Again, I would do this but don't yet know TS.

Thank you!
