Roadmap (in no particular order)

  • Remove long press, use Options (*) key instead
  • Limit VideoQueue so it doesn't grow indefinitely. Perhaps make playing a playlist reset the queue
  • Refactor content node 77ebd18
  • Filter content in Playlet backend, with settings
    • "Creator on the rise" in trending
    • "Pay to watch" (paid videos in courses)
  • The UX is not clear: There's a backend setting, but it is only for playback. This needs to become clearer; a proper "backend" setting
    • [UX] Clarify that Playlet backend is only for video stream
  • Implement NextParams to fetch multiple videos (video id array) with one request
  • "Continue watching" list of videos Remembering Playback Position and Watch History  #138
  • Add an option to block NSFW videos (parental control)
  • [UX] Clarify that Auto (DASH) quality can go up to 1080p
  • Add a selector for the content country for region specific trending videos and search results
  • Make sure all selectable items are compatible with the screen reader for better accessibility
  • Add the list of subscribed channels to the home screen

Graveyard

These have been abandoned, or no longer apply.

  • [UX] clarify that the web app contains more settings than just casting Feature request - be able to provide own invidious URL (for self-hosted) #24
    • By adding a settings page and moving qr code to it's own screen, this seems to be established.
  • /invidious/replay API replay
    • /invidious/replay/api/v1/stats would proxy to $INSTANCE/api/v1/stats
    • This is already done for authenticated calls, and will be added to needed endpoints only
  • Music mode (no video)
    • Unless there's demand for this, there's no reason for it. It makes sense on mobile to save battery, but not on a TV.
  • [Spike] online service backup
    • Back up current roRegistry to pastebin-like service
    • Encrypt using device Id
    • Simply a bad idea: settings can be imported/exported to a file. We can add web app UI for this functionality.
  • [SPIKE] Web Share Target API
    • Web app must be installable, which means it needs to be served over HTTPS
      • Option 1: serve over HTTPS from Roku somehow
      • Option 2: serve from a hosted app (Maybe Github Pages would do) that won't work, it will hit Mixed Content Security Policy
      • Option 3: native mobile app? -> this remains the only logical option, still on the roadmap
      • Option 4: Dockerized local web app (self-hosted)
        • Have an advantage of being bundled with Invidious, and also can auto-find the TV
  • [Spike] Configurable installed version (latest vs specific version)
    • This is done as a developer menu
  • [Spike] Fix non-Latin characters (Unicode on Roku sucks) [Spike] Rich label rendering idea #40
  • [SPIKE] run yt-dlp on Roku using https://github.com/MotleyCoderDev/wasm2brs
    • Not much is possible with wasm2brs - a Playlet extractor might make more sense.
  • [BUG] Fix launchArg video focus issue (Create Component Library #43 regression) (no longer an issue after the v0.11.0 rewrite)
  • Add option to preview/watch a video on web app (using Invidious embed ${instance}/embed/${videoId})
  • Load known DASH urls before loading video details for faster load times #35
  • Chrome extension to cast to Playlet
  • Logs Web App UI (a button to download logs) - done
  • Native mobile app for casting from Official Youtube app Poc/nativescript #118
  • Log the lastExitOrTerminationReason value
  • Items deferred in Preferences / Web App #79
    • Setting controls should not have "instant save" to avoid accidental changes (on the web)
    • Buttons!
      • Invidious -> User -> logout (and display username?)
      • Reset settings? -> low priority, not for now
    • Error handling of web requests
  • Embedded preview video (auto-play)
  • Customize SponsorBlock instance - will reconsider if people are self hosting sponsorblock instances
    • setting in web app
  • [Spike] Use NewLeaf backend - not a priority
  • Theme support
    • Roku
    • Web App
  • Adjust picture in picture position on Search Page
  • Dislike count (Return YouTube Dislike integration)
  • SponsorBlock UI notification: show for a maximum of 3 seconds when Video UI is not visible, to avoid showing the notification for too long on long segments. Notification should be visible when Video UI is visible
  • SponsorBlock user id
  • Use expire field (in video urls) to check if video expired
    • Do an http-request with "cache-only" flag
    • If expired, make a request with "no-cache" flag
  • [Spike] DeArrow integration
