[Feature] 2x speed when long press & server switching #33
Description
Problem description
Feature Requests:
1. Long press to play 2x speed (like YouTube)
Add the ability to long press on the video player to enable 2x playback speed, similar to how YouTube's mobile app works. This would make it quick and convenient to watch content at faster speeds without navigating through settings.
2. Server switching option
Currently, when switching between playing content on local network and outside the local network, users have to logout and log back in. Please add a server switch option that allows users to seamlessly switch between local and remote servers without logging out and losing their session state.
Proposed solution
Proposed Solutions:
1. Long press playback speed feature:
- Implement a gesture recognizer that detects long press (hold for 0.5-1 second) on the video player
- On long press, enable 2x playback speed temporarily
- Display a visual indicator showing "2x Speed Enabled"
2. Server switching:
- Add a "Switch Server" option in the settings menu
- Allow users to manually select preferred server without logout
- Persist the selected server preference in app preferences
- Show current server status in the app UI (local/remote indicator)
