With the release of the S!!! im finally hoping to see my dream come true of having google navigation in a floating window so i can see the nav and pandora/other apps at the same time, anyone have any idea if this will be a possiblity (since it seems that it will initially only support playing videos from the media player :? ) Any ideas?
theres apps available already i believe that allow you to do this
ill do a quick search and link them on here.
EDIT: heres one
STICK IT (Pop up Player

Sounds like this app is for people with ADD. Or is it the Stick It video.

Im aware of the ability to watch video on the s3 and the apps that attempt to replicate that currently available, but my question was if the s3 software would be able to be modified to open other types of content (ie google nav) in a window, and not just video from the media player. any idea?
bump, got to activate a couple s3's at work (sprint rep/tech) and the windowing feature is really smooth but is only available to video opened from the media player any idea of theres/ will be a way to open other apps to that feature?
Hi everybody,
I'm looking for a ROM for the G Pad (v500) with multitasking support. I need it mostly to watch lessons whilst reading some material (mostly pdfs). I know the stock rom has a floating video player, but it doesn't play most video formats.
So far I've tested Omni 4.4 w/ multi-window, but it's a little buggy with MXPlayer in Splitview and when I'm interacting with one app (Adobe Reader, for example), it freezes the other (MXPlayer, for example).
It doesn't matter if the multitasking is done via splitview or floating windows. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

You can have mxplayer run in the background (not sure if video images get rendered or not)
I remember seeing in the multiwindoe code patch about setting which side of window is active... I might patch that section (could lead to lower battery life).
Have you seen other implementations that work with both splitscrrens active, like Samsung's split view? I've tried xposed+xfloatingwindows, same "bug"
Alternative is an app like BsPlayer, which actually does its own pop-out to floating window feature, like the Facebook chat heads
Didn't know about this BSPlayer feature. I'm gona give it a whirl. Thanks!

I'd rather try to get omni's splitscreen feature polished, since it will work across more apps instead of just specific apps(like samsung's splitview)
When I use multi-window mode on my Galaxy S with Netflix and any other app, Netflix will pause when I use the other app. This is frustrating because I can't watch a show while checking Facebook, for example (which is the whole point of the multi-window feature). Is there a workaround for this? If not, can someone give me some practical applications for this feature? I've got some in mind, but I'm curious to see what others have used it for.
I have searched for a work around myself and unfortunatly even with root and with the far superior multitasking that TWDetox uses I have found no way to keep netflix playing while multitasked. I think this behavior is intentional from netflix so you don't "miss a moment" but yea it is annoying.
As for uses for the multitask I use it with almost every other video program and it works beautifully. Aside from that the usual use of looking something up while answering an email so I can easily copy and paste. Also using the open in annother app option on web videos lets most play in the built in video player that can be multitasked over any (yes any even without root) app. This makes watching a video while working on something else an easy experience. Add in a Upnp player type app that allows rendering to the player of your choice and even network attached storage videos can play overtop of any app.

I just testing the app, and I have to say: Cool, man, this is a realy cool. Now I can listening a music from YT with minimal battery consumption, because screen is off.
In my opinion, and for my taste, your app interface is nicer but official app.
I don't want to be a saucy, just asking:
-Can you implement a feature, when watching video in app (portrait mode, not full screen) and press back to return on search results, video continue playing in small window in bottom right corner? You know, as an official YT app.
-Can you implement a feature music continue to play when exit on home button?
Thanks.

Actually i'm not the developer of this app i credit the OP above.
And about your questions really i have asked before about the background feature and i use the "awesome pop-up" app to floating window of video and do other things in my phone.
Another thing, try this new mod Youtube here with new YT sources and all the features you asking for it, if you don't want to face any problem with it use the xposed version.
(For xposed version scroll down and click on xposed icon, you will have two downloads app one for the mod YT and other apk for module in xposed)
I would appreciate if someone knows a modified YouTube application. The features I'm looking for are;
- Playback in background.
- All ads are blocked.
- (Being able to download videos is a bonus).
EDIT: Have find one!
I would simply like to know a way to get the videos to play automatically at 1080p.
Right now, they start playing at 480p..
I'm using IYTB youtube... Playback in background and all ads are blocked...

Yup! Here it is with swift black
I'm assuming you're avoiding YouTube Red? Now that i have it, I'll never be able to go back. $10 a month for all the features you're looking for in the OP while also supporting my favorite content creators? Yes please.
I understand not wanting to pay for yet another subscription.

Because maybe some People dont wana pay 10 $ a month for "just some additional" Features and most of the Money gets to YouTube more then the Content creators.
Also YouTube red is still not available everywhere, and last but not least, some like the normal app but only Need Background playing, Screen of playing and no ads.
I completely understand. It's ridiculous how features that should be in the base app (background play, and other) are hidden behind a pay wall. I was just making sure.
for everyone not using Magisk there is an app called OGYouTube. It has all the features mentioned I this thread and works really well, the only downside is that the dev no longer supports it so it won't get any future updates. Current base is 12.10.60
does anyone know how to make Viper4droid work with iYTBP ?
viper work well with Ymusic and poweramp, but nothing in iytbp.
