Playing Movie Minimized While Navigating Library (TV)

[AdamSooner]

I love this feature on the PC - I can watch a show in the small/minimized player, while navigating my library doing busywork (updating subtitles, creating collections, etc.)

Would it be possible to update the Plex app on TVs and phones to have the same capability? Similar to picture-in-picture, I can have the movie playing in a corner of the screen while still managing the library?

Thanks in advance! Love Plex and the community

If so I suggest you vote/comment in that thread instead in order to avoid distracting/dispersing votes.

Side note: some clients already support a picture-in-picture mode…
