Picture in Picture Via Targeted Components + Background Audio Targeting
Izy G
Hello Expo team, I've recently come up into a hard roadblock that would require me to eject expo in order to circumvent. But I don't want to do that. The issue is that I have no choice but to use a webview in order to show video due to the proprietary live feed. expo-video or any other package cannot do that as they require the direct links which the proprietary live feed does not have publicly. This also means that I can't use the PiP that other libraries may have due to this limitation. However, I think expo overall is lacking in PiP + background audio. While my issue could be fixed by updating expo-video to allow capturing feed differently. I think it would be of great benefit if expo had a package that allowed you to target a specific component and pop it out in PiP mode. Additionally, another package that could capture existing audio being made by the app to be played in the background would be amazing as well. Maybe this could also target specific components to kee alive in the background for audio background when you exit the app?
