[FEATURE] Video playlist/randomizer mode #4

Description:

User Trick_Equipment_6938 on Reddit suggested adding a feature to select multiple video files and have them play on a cycle.

Goal:

Enhance the app's functionality by allowing users to create a collection of wallpapers. The app could then either play through the videos in a set order or choose one randomly each time the home screen wakes up. The user specifically mentioned that a "set order" would be a great starting point.

Technical Considerations:

  • UI/UX: The top priority is to implement this without cluttering the main, simple interface. The most likely solution is to add a new "Playlists" or "Collections" tab.

  • Logic: The WallpaperService would need to be updated to manage a list of video URIs instead of a single one, along with the logic for selecting the next video in the sequence (either sequentially or randomly).

  • Persistence: The selected playlist of videos would need to be saved persistently in the app's storage.

Priority:

This is a high-value feature that would significantly expand the app's capabilities. It will be prioritized after critical bug fixes are addressed.
