Pressing play (on remote) during playback should show overlay UI

[Trunk 21]

HI,

One minor thing. When a video is playing and pressing play (on remote) should bring up the overlay (playback indicators aso). This is the default behavior on most video players I have tried.

This was possible before the last updates.

Emby Theatre 3.0.20.

HI, we'll take a look at this. Thanks for reporting.

The latest Emby Theatre now have a issue where pressing play on my remote (to bring up the UI) during playback actually pause the video. Hope this can be fixed so it do not pause.

I don't think the video player (MPV) has an explicit play button but a play/pause toggle which maps to keyboard and remote buttons.  The up/down arrow keys will bring up the video OSD.
