[Android TV] Do not stop theme song when displaying plot in full screen

[sephrat 16]

Probably a quick win.

 

On Android TV, expanding the plot/overview/synopsis (not sure of the English term) of a film does not work the same way as on other apps. If you want to read the full text, you need to click on it and it gets displayed in full screen on top of a black screen. (Other apps just dynamically expand the text and let you scroll through the same page)

Doing that, the theme song suddenly stops and you're left with no sound while you read the full synopsis. It starts again (from the start - it did not pause) when you close the "popup" and are back to the film main page.

 

It would feel much better to keep playing the theme song on that screen.

 

At the moment it kind of brakes the immersion provided by theme songs when browsing through the films to decide which one to watch tonight.

1. The theme plays for the first 10 seconds (you have a quick look at the plot, the actors, ....),
2. then nothing during the minute you spend reading the full plot,
3. then the first 10 seconds play again by the time you decide to switch to another film or play that one.
